Your loss.Probably the only one of your posts I've read from start to finish.

Your loss.
How could you say if you never bother reading the content?Debatable.

Windows 10 is currently pissing me off with my rig at work as it's saying the motherboard (x79) and chipset (Intel C600) aren't supported anymore so Windows can't upgrade.
It happens to be my printer drivers that have stopped working so no printer for my main design rig. It's pissing my CAD bloke off no end.
Well if you haven't got the attention span to see out a few sentences I guess it's beyond you to make a decent analysis of the content. Keep at it buddy, you might crack it one day. I believe in you.Did I say I didn’t? I said I never read a whole post bar the one above which proved you couldn’t take a post in context either.
Some laptop recommendations needed from you über geeks please.
My wife is after a laptop for her Uni course next year. Her whole course is online so she will need to be able to do her assignments on it, download and watch lectures and recorded herself doing presentations and use power point etc.
Would a chromebook do all that or does she need an actual proper laptop. Any recommendations? All answers need to be in child friendly form as I am probably only a couple levels up from Paddy with my understanding of technology.

I don't believe in you, that's the crux of the issue.
If not performing a simple setting change is worth making things difficult for the sake of it, by all means. Not sure why you would leave things enabled that you actively don't want being used, regardless of this specific conversation...
Fortunately I'm not reliant on your backing, I can be my own man.
Good job really. Your own man being one who drops into a thread he has no input in and laughs at someone over a post that was completely missing the point. No wonder I don't usually read your posts.
T-Dan, just spoke with Cass as I bought her a brand new laptop with Windows 10 on for her birthday last year. It’s got Office installed (2016 I think) and has been used three times. She prefers to use my PC. To all intents and purposes it’s brand new really. I paid around £750 for it, I can do it for £500 if you’re interested.
I’ll dig the spec out later but I know it has an i5 CPU and 8gb RAM. It will be perfect for what your wife needs.
Last word on this. I don't use Windows 10 so there is no problem as things stand. It is not causing me a problem as I don't use it. If and when I have to I'll go back to my monitor/speaker combo which will negate any driver conflict issues. So, for the last time, I was pointing out that the beginner/average user who DOES NOT KNOW how to go into the BIOS and fanny around with that kind of thing will have issues, this has never been a problem in any previous Windows so the problem lies with 10 which was my point all along. My findings were through beta testing for Microsoft, that is all. And to this day they haven't fixed it.
Does that make sense? Hope so because I'm not going to explain it again.
