    Hello all,

    I have been having the worst time with Windows 10, and am looking for some help. It have been very tempting to switch back to Win7 since my computer now crashes everyday and restarts by itself. I have tried reinstalling Windows 10 as clean as I can get it, including both options here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...2-owners-lounge-thread-part-1.630103/page-105: , and still run into problems.

    I found that some of the drivers that I installed the first time were making me freeze/lock up so now I have limited it to only my video driver to be installed. Almost all of them are incompatible from dells drivers website.

    The last, and most stable, way I have installed windows was installing win7 first, then doing the upgrade and installation media, and going through the installation instructions Looking for a way to get win 10 running stable on my computer, without having to go back to win7.

    If you have a way that worked with you please share it, as I am running out of ideas...
