Howdy folks,
I'm going to be helping someone upgrade their painfully slow Acer Aspire 7551g laptop. My plan is to replace the HDD with an SSD and throw Windows 10 on it. I found a few old threads (circa 2015) that showed issues with Windows 10, but nothing from recent so I'm assuming updates have fixed issues. However, if Windows 10 doesn't work, I plan to just reinstall Windows 7. I went to Acer's website to download the drivers ahead of time and noticed that it's missing some important ones such as the chipset.
My question is can I just go to AMD's website and get them from there? The laptop has an AMD Phenom II X4 N930 for the CPU.
Also, any other potential issues that I may not be thinking of? Thanks for your time!
