decide to show up after using a cleaner program. I was at a loss, borrowed a cable and thought...might as well install windows 10. This was after a couple hours of trying to find out the driver I needed.

Windows 10 cleared up came up and online easily and it said I needed updates. It was easy to agree to them and it fixed my wifi driver problem!

I am pretty happy with it.
