  • Yes, I had windows 8, but then one of those automatic updates happened and before I knew it, I had windows 10!   I've got a USB stick now.   I guess I can't copy Windows 10 from my laptop?

    No, you need to go to Microsoft website and create an installation tool

  • Thank you.  I have downloaded the tool to the usb stick.   I've stuck it into the Allinone PC but I think I should be doing a bit more as nothing has happened.  Ie, I guess I need to access the tool somehow?
  • No you don't download the tool to the USB , downlood the tool to your other pc then follow the instructions, take it easy I know you wan't to prove you can do it but you first have to follow instructions click on the little + signs.

  • OK, thanks  - I got a little bit ahead of myself!  
  • When you have followed the instructions carefully, you will have a USB which you can use to boot on your aio to install Windows, I take it your son has removed the original disk and replaced it with the ssd?

  • OK.  Downloaded to my laptop.  Now I've entered to create an installation for another PC.   Now, it is basing things on my laptop and suggesting 64bit setup.   I can't remember if my allinone pc was 32 bit or 64 bit?
    Yes, my son has installed the new SSD.  He went to bed early as he has to be up at 4 am for work!   Any ideas on the 32 or 64 bit?
    BTW, I do really appreciate you help :-)

  • Ha, I'm getting good, just googled the spec of the old one and it is 64!
