[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 400391, member: 6967"] First thing I would do is put Windows 7 on it. I got a new laptop the other day, took me an hour or 2 sat in front of the telly to get it all set up. First thing is core drivers, so depending on what the machine has on board then grab the latest AMD/Intel/nVidia drivers from the relevant site. Next go to www.ninite.com, tick the boxes for the programs you want and then download and run the resulting .exe. This will sort out most programs, then install the odd couple that aren't hosted there manually and then finally copy profiles over from Firefox and Thunderbird. Bar a bit of personalising and tweaking that's about it really. [/QUOTE]
