Judy's Dell Inspiron 3650
Initial Setup 2017-03-03
Has an add on graphics card with VGA, HDMI and DVI output ports. This was not shown in any pics or written specs. PC is smaller and quieter than expected.
Answered usual setup questions, did not activate Macaffe. Download and update of Windows patches took 1:10:00 and counting. Rebooted without warning after 1:15:00 and 1:25:00 with updates 75% and 97% complete. There was a message on screen saying PC will reboot several times.
Suggest removal of:
- proDAD video editor
McAfee
- New Blue Video Essentials

Downloaded zip files from Carbonite to XX-Carbonite folder. Took most of day, big downloads tended to get stuck at ~2GB, had to start over. There is a Documents and Settings folder on old C:/ that is now a linked folder on Windows 10.
Started Carbonite restore process at 8:50 PM, took 20 minutes to create all folders. As of 8:50 AM, says 3 more hours.
