i agree but that list is specific for microsoft phoning home with ur data. and that list only covers the things people can actually turn off. not the stuff that cant be turned off. And really how many people would even do that.

after doing some research, windows 10 doesnt support my graphics card. its a radeon x1650 pro, so im assuming that is what is causing the problem, is there anyway around this? can i switch back to win 7?

Oh wow, a backwards compatibility problem with Windows 10.

I'm shocked. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] That's what these Microsoft fanboys won't tell you about before selling you on the upgrade, among 50 other things.

Good luck. Nothing is free, remember that and you won't get taken for a ride again.

My computer had a similar issue.

1) Do a clean wipe of windows 10 (wipe everything) and reinstall all drivers
2) Remove your computer's hardware and plug it back in.
3) Bios update.

Generally bios updates are pretty easy now a days. Find software online throw it on a usb stick. Load bios before windows boots and there should be an area inside the bios that says update bios and select from usb stick. Warning if you mess up on a bios update you can break your computer.

My computer was all messed up after update. First I did a clean wipe and it fixed 50% of the problem. After that my memory was messed up. I contacted Asus tech support and they said I had to pull my hardware and plug it back in. I did that and it worked. They also recommended a bios update if the previous steps didn't work. I did the bios update anyways. Now my computer runs better than ever with windows 10.

WindowedWidth=1920
WindowedHeight=1080
This would be assuming he has 1920x1080 resolution. By the looks of his desktop I don't think it is, probably most likely since his graphics card isn't compatible though.

ya so it was the fact that the graphic card wasn't compatible with windows 10.

I was able to find a patch that would allow it to be, and then installed the proper driver, and now its running better than ever so far.

That video card is 7 years old and expecting any Microsoft/AMD support for it is foolish.
