PC issues, Reinstalling Win 7, then upgrading to Win 10 - is it possib
A few years back, I bought a Win 7 laptop from Costco which was upgraded to Win 10 once it became available. Recently, the laptop failed and so I downloaded Win 10 from the Microsoft site and installed it.
My son said that since doing this, the performance has been poor and the laptop has been freezing. He never had this issue when the laptop was Win 7 and upgraded to Win 10. The issue only started after installing a vanilla version of Win 10.
What I am wondering is if this is a driver issue of some sort. When we bought the PC, it was Win 7 and then we upgraded to Win 10.
I have found the original Win 7 DVDs for this laptop. If I was to reinstall Win 7 on the laptop, how would I upgrade it to Windows 10 again?
