[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1038146, member: 175144"] This is an ACER laptop (model I didn't write down, but it was shipped with Win7 and has 3GB ram as standard). The Meltdown vulnerability was mentioned in one of the releases I saw zip past on the screen as it was updating, but from memory it patched OK and the laptop was able to restart at least twice before this problem occurred, though I am aware the final patch is still in the manufacturers pipeline. Pressing enter allows a brief view of the login page (user name) behind the desktop image, but it cannot be accessed and disappears immediatey on the release of the button. What is slightly odd is that the is the Win10 25 character authorisation code is different to the Win 7 authorisation code that is on the official sticker under the case. [/QUOTE]
