Perpetual Ruminations

New Windows, Old Laptop

Eight days since my last entry, what can I say? More computer problems. Yes, Windows did it again.

I had just gotten things working right when what to my wondering eyes should appear, another Windows Update I fear.

Okay, enough with rhyming, It's fun and entertaining, but I have no time to entertain; I need to get ready to leave for work.

Anyway, I downloaded and installed the update and now I have the same problems as before. My display is stretched, but this time I cannot roll back to a previous driver, there isn't one on my system to roll back to.

I looked online but had no luck, Windows insists this is the best driver for my display. The manufacturer, you say? Yes, I checked there too, but my machine is too old, they don't have a driver compatible with my laptop running Windows 10. I could download the one for version 7, but Windows support says that won't work with version 10.

It looks like I'll be writing to Santa and asking for a new laptop. Well, we'll see how that goes.
