After only 8 days I have managed to install Windows 10 on the ‘Big Box’ and I’m already pissed off about it. All I wanted to do is copy a file from a directory to a flash drive and there is no obvious way of doing this.

I will install the Classic Shell tomorrow and that may help. I turned down their offer of using the ‘Express Settings’ and ‘Express’ly answered OFF, NO, 0 to each of their suggestions. If you answer ‘yes’, you are sending all of your information and everything you do on the computer to Microsoft.

I got ESET reloaded and it is current running a total scan on the disk.

The Error Code C1900101-20013 came up with the first installation attempt using the DVD, but the DVD installer said it occurred in Safe_Mode. Obviously the problem had to be with the Bios on the motherboard. I went a got the latest version from ASRock and flashed the EEPROM. This was in direct opposition to ASRock’s recommendation “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” Their attitude being if everything is working, why chance it? An error while flashing the Bios could result in having nothing work.

So, you have to uninstall your anti-virus software.
Remove the start at boot switch from all your software.
Update all of your firmware.
Update your operating system.
Burn an IOS image DVD.

And you might get Windows 10 installed.

Now I have to figure out how to shut the computer off….
