Hello, so what happens to the files and softwares in the old hard drive? For your answer

[@Hatefsong]

Thanks for your answer

@@Hatefsong We cloned the old drive to the new one.

Do you need to ground the laptop before changing the hard drive or memory?

[@akumazusfusion8368]

Yes remove the battery and power supply. This should ground it. Good question

[@JohnSAitken]

What OS did you install? Got this model on order.

[@techstudiotube]

Windows 10 works fine on these machines.

@@techstudiotube I’m thinking of installing XP. All the rest (as in) 7,10,11: Vista and the like are all blotted with unnecessary application. I know it’s a wee bit out of date, but one has more control over things. Not wanting it for the Internet.
