    Win 10: Can't upgrade but can do a clean install

    Media creation tool. I didn't want to wait for the reservation thing to roll around to update as that could be days to weeks away. Is there a way to update via DVD/USB and still have it convert the product key?

    Win 10: Can't upgrade but can do a clean install

    I have a number of Dell Latitude E6510 laptops with Windows 7 Pro that need to be upgraded to Windows 10. I have tried upgrading four different ones and get the same result, which is it error-ing out at a recovery screen. The strange thing is I can install Windows 10 just fine on the laptops...

    Build or buy?

    Is that going to be enough? He currently has a Core i3 in his laptop and the game is sluggish and choppy. He has Intel HD 3000 graphics. I already reformatted his system once and I just installed Windows and drivers to make sure nothing else was causing issues and there was no real...

    Build or buy?

    Need a $600 budget build for World of Warcraft

    Thanks for the advice. He's not willing to up it from $600. I had to convince him $500 wasn't enough due to the OS. We may end up buying used parts and building that way. Are there any parts that we should absolutely buy new at this point?

    Need a $600 budget build for World of Warcraft

    I know... it's quite laughable but it's really not possible with the system he is playing on right now which consists of a Pentium D and 1GB of RAM.

    Need a $600 budget build for World of Warcraft

    TV tuner recommendation?

    I live near a large city. I just want something that is quality that I could plug into the coax and get digital TV. We have cable in the house but I don't want another cable box. Just want to watch NFL games on my second monitor. Nothing special. Just want a quality component.

    Subnet mask issue?

    Several years ago, our network was established using 172.16.3.0 but was assigned a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 instead of 255.255.0.0 which seems a little odd to me. We have had no known network problems throughout the years using this. Now we have bought a device and it has been assigned...
