I do not have anything to do a clean install with. I am not able to log in, so I cannot do a new dowload of a Windows 10 installer. I did do a download of the Windows 10 ISO on my Mac and copied it onto a 8GB flashdrive formatted for windows, I tried to boot the laptop from the flashdrive, but the boot order has the flashdrive in position 3, with the DVD drive in position 1.
I have tried to burn windows 10 ISO to a Memorex DVDRW using the Mac optical drive, but I have been unable to get that to work and I have used a compressed air duster in the slot of the optical drive. That did get it working to play DVD's, but for what ever reason reading a blank DVDRW is not happening.
I was hoping to post a report on the Diagnostics by now, but it is still working - when it started it said 126 min. that was at 12:Noon today and it
is just now going through the final Verify test.
