    Question Windows 7 Blocking Certain Updates

    Hey, whats your CPU? if its intel or ryzen 7th gen, win 7 and 8 will block yourself from getting updates. If you got i5 no problem, but you got i7 or Ryzen 7 you might need to use a win update patcher.

    [SOLVED] Windows 7 Ultimate slow after fresh install

    ok. You gotta change the RAM to ATLEAST 4 gigs, or better 8 gigs. Windows 10 will be horrible on 2 gigs. Even at 8 gigs win10 is kinda laggy on my desktop. How did you even live with 2 gigs this whole time? I think if you swap your memory to 16 gigs your pc will be a blast. win 7 or win 10...

    [SOLVED] Get Windows 7 from HP Recovery

    Well, not quite. Why when I go to control panel it says Windows 10 Pro? it should say Windows 2004 pro or some like that. Besides, these are just build versions. And yeah, win 10 in 2015 is quite different. So why not name build 2004 windows 11 or some you know?

    [SOLVED] Get Windows 7 from HP Recovery

    [SOLVED] Get Windows 7 from HP Recovery

    It is possible that anytime Microsoft will pull the plug for Win 7. Not sure what I'm gonna do then... and for me its either Win 7 or 10. Win 8/8.1 is one of the worst if not THE WORST os out there. Rather have AVG and live with 7, until MS really stuffs Win 10 down my throat.

    [SOLVED] Most modern CPU still supporting Windows 7?

    Well, make sure you get Intel or ryzen which is below 7th gen. Windows 7 and 8 updates have a kill switch which don't allow updates. Besides, if you don't like Win 10 there are apps that change the interface to Windows 7-ish to get that aqua feel. But i agree that Microsoft's forceful push to...
