Rocking the free upgrade to Windows 10

I remember the Boy Scouts' motto was Be Prepared or something so on the way to the camp they put rocks in my pack, had a contest to see who could pee the farthest of the side of the road into a ravine and even after the Playboys and cards were confiscated managed to make the Girl Scout leader so mad she wanted to kill our scoutmaster.

Needless to say I wasn't there long.

Slept in for being up all night again and I'm officially upgrading now.
 
Plugging my nose and saying "take out wrenched ankle" :toothy5:

What are the hardware specs of your latest victim?
 
To make a long set of pictures shorter...

Oh HELL YES...I've used WP since DOS 4.2 or 4.3 and that's a lot of stuff I don't have to worry about (including the Christmas projects)!
 
it's VALERIE, Web. MPC ClientPro 365, 3.20 GHz Hyperthreading Pentium 4 (turned off in BIOS).

I believe it's all PC3200, two 512s and 2 1024s.

It stumbles just a little right now in IE, perhaps I should let it update and also turn the hyperthreading back on.
 
I did get a warning about SPD (Serial Presence Detection) during my restart after changing the BIOS settings, said it would go to 333MHZ by default (all my RAM is 400 MHz). I'm online with it right now and getting it set up, went to Yesfans just now.

Now I'm going to have to find my scanner power supply and see what I can do with it (HP Scanjet 5400C) and if that works I will be extremely happy.

This latest installation was from the 16 GB USB thumb drive you sent me and I loaded Home and Pro update version from. IIRC the other MPC has Pro?

Click to expand...

You loaded the os, so only you will know? Go to control panel/system and it should tell you what flavor of os you have installed.
 
Alison and Valerie. I'd take a picture but the battery is charging. I have a few other things to photograph for the site today...
