[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 891941, member: 51905"] HP's OEM windows versions are awful. They are always full of bloatwares and slow as hell The first thing I always do is reinstalling the windows as soon as possible. Use the one from microsoft, not from OEM because they are always heavier Preferred: - The windows version, released in the same year as your CPU. N3060 (Q1, 2016) -> I prefer installing windows 10 v1607, LTSB 2016 or 1703 (not preferred) on it. This will ensure the maximum compatibility and speed due to driver support from HP - install drivers from HP and update them if posible (from the manufactures, not from driver updaters). Don't install HP softwares if they are not super important (such as beats/IDT audio driver, for example, without it, the computer will sound terribly) - Use debloat scripts right after installing your computer. This would yield the least number of bugs - I don't recommend messing with WPD. It causes many headaches. OOshutup is better, simplier and easy to fix. Use recommended preset/settings if you still find windows 10 slow, you may try to revert to windows 8.1 v9300 to see if it's any better. Be aware of driver support p/s: running w10 on a 4GB Ram laptop is a no no from me. 4GB can't handle w10 full very smoothly (some people can still tolerate it). I prefer windows 8.1 or windows 10 lite/compact [/QUOTE]
