And I have 8 pc's in various rooms (6 AMD and 2 Intel). Windows 7 SP2 on all, but 1 (windows 10). And the laptop with Windows 10 is set up like 7. I put 10 on it for shits and giggles and turned all the damn auto updates and privacy shit off. Should have left it alone. Hell I ran XP forever. If it aint broke !!!!!!

Then comes the real slow down.
