    Windows 10 freezing every few seconds / Unable to install a new driver


    Hello everyone! I have an HP laptop and recently decided to try Windows 10. Note that I'm not very tech savy, I just follow youtube videos to get this stuff done. Anyway, I installed windows 10 but there is a HUGE problem : it freezes every few seconds or so. Doing my google research to try to fix this issue, I found this thread : Windows freezing every 2 seconds for a second at the time and deactivating the graphics driver did stop the freezing but I can't figure out how to install the old driver. While deactivated I cant adjust the brightness nor connect HDMI and those are very important to me. I went here: https://www.amd.com/en/support and here: https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers...99?sku=E7H81LA downloaded the 2015 drivers as instructed in the thread I listed above and for some reason the most recent driver gets installed all the time which is the one causing the issue (AMD radeon HD 8330) What am I doing wrong here? Am I supposed to do something different with those files other than running it? This is driving me crazy. No matter what I do, after every restart AMD radeon HD 8330 goes back active. I need some help please. If you need any more info please let me know and thanks beforehand.

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
