Second that about the SSD.  I put in one last month - 250GB, struggled
through getting all of the right drivers installed, and the comp now runs
like a spotted dog. And the 500GB rotator is still there for the overflow.
But everything I need fits handily on the 250.

Hi Gustav,
Did you install that from CD or via the Windows update download update?

I tried upgrading a Dell OptiPlex GX620 with Pentium 4 and 2GB earlier this
week and the Windows 10 logo was on the main screen for about 12 hours. It
never displayed anything else.

Hi Tina

Indeed. My ten+ year old HP Pavilion zd8237 runs nicely with its Pentium 4
CPU. 2 GB was a lot those days.

If you also spend some money on a SSD drive, you will feel like having a new
machine.

Hi All,

What are the system requirements for Windows 10?  Would a Win XP box with 2
Gig RAM and 100 Gig hard drive be sufficient?
