Well Ive finally made the jump & pensioned off windows xp
Ive installed a ssd into my dilapidated 10 year old Dell Dimension 5150 and stuck win 7 on it. I did try linux of various flavours but Ive given up for now as the ones Ive tried dont run my twin screens properly. At least windows recognises the damn graphics card properly and just works rather than some cryptic message that boils down to "forget it bud - time to start feckin around with drivers"
Win 10 auto installing wont be an option on this machine - it wont install (Ive tried several times). It doesnt even work if I prior install it onto another computer & swap the drives over. The first windows splash screen appears then nothing happens.
