Windows 10 upgrade - two problems.
I updated my Acer Aspire 5551-A Laptop from Windows 7 yesterday, took 8.5 hours but seems to work well except for Windows Live Mail. I have two live.co.uk e.mail addresses that still work, but my wife's, and four old hotmail.com accounts produce this error message -Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail account.
Server Error: 3204 Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE2000
Using a Microsoft fix said it had sorted a delta sync error, but the e.mails still don't work
More importantly, My Medion Akoya E4059 Desktop has been a complete nightmare. After the upgrade from Windows 8.1, the screen resolution was all wrong. I resized the Icons but the text was too large still, so I tried a few different screen resolutions and ended up with a message on screen telling me that the new settings weren't suitable, and that's all I could see. Spent most of the night trying to get into safe mode via the Bios, and tried everything I could think of, booting from installation disc, restoring, reverting etc, but nothing has worked (I'm not very technical but usually manage). Now I am going back to a previous build, been 2 hours so far. If that doesn't work looks like a clean install of Windows 8. Will update later, but any suggestions in the meantime will be appreciated.
