Samsung nc10 repair windows

So, the NC10 updated to Win10 anniversary edition Ran very slow. Edge worse than ever and hangs if you have either of the adblocker extensions installed. Whole thing not really usable. I wonder whether the version will be pushed through automatically again…. First release seemed good. I did the upgrade and kept my files etc. I did the anniversary update too and all worked okay, but was a little slow still.

Anyway, cut a long story short, I felt that Win 10 was a little slow on the NC10 — not when it starts up per se, more in actual use. Next up I tried Android x86 — which, by the way, runs amazingly well on the NC10! So, Windows 10 Anniversary update installed — I did not enter a product key, you do not need it if your laptop has already used Win Windows online syncs the hardware ID and you get activated online like that. I actually quite like this feature, although am scared that if for whatever reason I decided to upgrade the HDD and needed to reinstall, would the change of HDD cause Windows not to recognise the hardware?

With Win 10 Anniversary update now reinstalled from scratch, everything is running MUCH faster and smoother — like the netbook did when I fresh installed Win 7 all those years ago. Only one driver update was needed for the graphics, which Windows found online automatically. Store updates and Win OS updates all done and everything seems peachy.

It is still slow to use, mind you, if you use Edge browser for example and have more than a couple of tabs open, but it does work. I tried Win 10 anniversary edition on my NC10 again from a couple of days ago. This time the fixes that MS has introduced during August and September seem to have done the trick and the NC10 is running pretty well as good as with the earlier Win 10, which is quite good. Even Edge with Adblockplus is not bad.

Nowhere near as good as MS trumpet it, but broadly same speed as ie11 or Firefox. Definitely worth a try. CloudReady is great, it actually feels as though the NC10 was made for it, not Windows, which has always been a bit clunky out the box.

Only thing is, you cannot dual boot CloudReady, hence my earlier frustrations with it. I have a Samsung NC10 that was running slow on XP due to poor maintenance and lots of program load and so i decided to update it a bit. Does it happens also to you? Most of the time the MS Defender is a lot of resource and otherwise the update is the resposable.

What is your experience on that? Right now it seems almost unusable, and I am starting to wonder if I could be better off with Win7 performance-wise. What do you think? Hi lucamiz01, has your NC10 settled down?

But I have disabled Cortana, turned off all the options that look like will result in more background process and telemetry. You have to be rigorous doing that. Several guides on the internet. I use Classic Shell Start Menu. In Privacy settings scroll down and in Background Apps turn every one of them off. Use Ccleaner to turn off unwanted startups. Overall certainly no better than when it was XP, but marginally better than when it had Win 7.

From Anniversary Edition, Edge works quite well, with ublock Origin adblocker. AdblockPlus was not very good. I got rid of that. Firefox is fine. Necessary cookies are absolutely essential for the website to function properly.

Check the Quick Format box. This will prepare the USB stick to be a Win7 installation drive; it needs to be at least 4GB and obviously have nothing on it that you need.

It installs an icon on the right of the task bar, from where you can assign the CD image to a virtual drive by right clicking and selecting your ISO file. This actually seemed to happen automatically somehow — got a bit confused here. You should end up with a virtual drive in Windows Explorer.

Download and install Easus Partition Manager 3. This makes it fairly easy to firstly resize your existing Windows partition to make space and then create a new partition from the free space. Unfortunately this is where things went horribly wrong, since the new partition meant that the Grub bootloader was looking on the wrong partition for the files it needed and on restarting the NC10 I got a Grub Error 17 and an otherwise dead machine. Fixing the Grub bootloader You need to tell Grub that the root partition has changed.
