thankyou, i am dual booting as i am testing windows 8.1, i hate windows 10 as of now as its keeps forcing me drivers, which are corrupting the currently installed ones and is just basically causing mayhem, so i am seeing where ether i should just buy windows 8.1 as i have control over it.

If you just want to test, and not worry about drivers, get Virtual Box. It is much easier in my opinion (for whatever thats worth). Good luck.

Didn't the drivers auto install when you put the Wifi card into an expansion slot? My ASUS Wifi card did so automatically. I didn't have to download anything. Windows 10 is pretty smart for the most part when it comes to installing drivers.

Why dual boot?

 

I don't speak the language, but you could follow this video. Different language, same clicks I'd assume.

I know. I just looked at the company page.... However, there is a thing under the home page with FAQ.. That is Frequently Asked Questions.

I have a old junker Acer laptop so I can run Windows 7. The wife likes the Original Sims.
