2. Purchase Windows 7 64 Bit

Hi all.I bought a new Asus 403 laptop with Windows 10 64 bit.32 GB ssd. Figured windows 10 would be about 5 or 6 GB, programs the same. Would leave me between 15 to 20 GB to play around with, hook up extra usb drive for storage/update etc.Anniversary update problems from the get go. Not enough space. Browsed around.main problem:can't hook up extra usb drive for the update (option not given). Nice.then i looked inside the machine on my C drive.Turned out Windows alone, without the program files was hogging 19.8 GB up on my C drive! Another 3.5 GB on program files(x86 and other).

• The Home Basic version of Windows 7 64-bit only supports 8 GB of RAM. Home Premium 64-bit supports 16 GB with Professional 64-bit and above supporting 192 GB. Home Basic is supposed to be for emerging markets. It's not available in most of North America, Western and Central Europe, and Australia.
• It’s one of the reasons which limit the maximum disk size on Windows 7. Aside by byte information of your system, bit information of your system is a factor which can influence the maximum disk size. Now, we can clearly get the byte and bit information of your operating system is the reason. Thus, if 32 is the bit allowed on your computer, the maximum hard drive is 2TB(2^32.512).

Windows 7 download file sizes from Digital River I purchased the student version of Win 7 Home Premium 32-bit for download from Digital River. The file size of both the.EXE and.ISO files are both 347KB, rather than between 2GB and 3 GB.

1.45 GB e support.It doesn't make any sense to me.Microsoft seems to want to open up the windows but closing the emergency exit (shutting usb ports, not letting you stop automatic updates and other gripes).give with one hand and taking with the other. End of grunt.But mea culpa if i just trapped myself in buying a laptop with such limited storage.i plead ignorance or better, innocence.but 19.8 GB for windows space? Come on!I'm not able to offload files to bring up enough space for the anniversay update. And i'm not sure if any automatic update will go through now. But maybe that's a good thing?

I ran into a similar problem with a Customer's netbook earlier this year when he tried to upgrade to W10 from W8.1. He had the 32GB SSD drive same size as yours. He had it for 3 or 4 years, so relatively new. When I got it to my workbench from the Customer I noticed while testing it, the capacity of the SSD drive was only like 24GB instead of the 29GB or 30GB that should be there after the overhead of drive formatting via NTFS reduces the total useable capacity of the drive (32GB).I solved this problem by doing 3 things. #1: I backed up all his data to external media and then used windows Disk Management tool to Extend his Volume to the maximum capacity of the drive around 29GB or so.

This picked up about 5GB; but the W10 upgrade needs at least 9.3GB (or it did earlier this year) in order to work. Customer had his SSD drive about 98% full; so he had like 22.5GB out of 24GB used; no space to do anything. #2: I then looked at his data in his Library folders and saw he had several GB of data including Browsing History and Cookies just sitting there taking up space; I cleared all this off to external media backup. Regained some more space. #3: Went into his Programs and Features applet and saw he had like 60 or 70 programs installed including stuff like MS Office 2013 and some photo editing software.

He had several toolbars.most of which contain viruses. in there and a bunch of freeware, over two-thirds of which he was no longer using. I then pruned off all of those unused or unneeded programs and picked up a few more GB of space. After doing all this, I got his used space down about 10GB to. Yes, you all make valid points and suggestions. As it is my wife and i mainly use it as a daily surfing/email/facebook comp as i also have an old Dell pc that's a tad old now and would like to use less (Vista goes with old software).Tablets don't really do it for me. I don't intend to put a lot of stuff on the new laptop, certainly no vids /pictures.

And i do have several external ssds i can hook up. Apart from some programs there's actually very little data on my new laptop.

I will consider moving some stuff to the cloud to make space but i think it would still not create enough room for the anni update. Starting anew and creating an windows10 iso on a stick/ssd drive is an option but i'm a little hesitant.

Windows 10 is so new so i might actually wait with iso mirroring/ major updates until some bugs have been dealt with.I just wish i could get some minor updates without having to free up 10 gigs or more.I've downloaded the anni file which is only 15mb but ms still wants me to free the space.i could obviously buy a bigger ssd and mirror the OS. And a tad more memory (i have 2g) wouldn't go amiss either. I knew that i was taking a chance but that anni update really bit me. Now Intel and Lenovo have TV-Computer Sticks for about $100 that do the same sort of thing in the size of a pack of gum. Sorry to divert there. Just some perspective on what the laptop guys are thinking when they give you a hard drive size that hasn't come on laptops for 15-20 years.I think you're getting the picture now, and the lightbulb has come on that's floating over your head now.Oh yes, lightbulb certainly. I did consider one of those brick mini pc's before as my video card in my Dell crashed, cause i have a few monitors, keyboards laying around.

But a laptop is just more pickupable isn't it? And at least it has a decent screen, keyboard, usb inputs etc compared to a tablet.EDIT: We've only tested 3 brands of SSD drives to work with W10 computers; Kingston, Intel, and Crucial. Keep this in mind when purchasing your new SSD drive!THAT'S VERY HELPFUL INFO, BIGBEAR!Hope that helps. You're right about that, bizz. In my opinion, all Chinese-made laptops need to come with a warning-especially the so-called class of Gaming laptops propaganda out there.

The exclusion here seems to be Dell and Samsung; my 2 favorite brands. Lenovo and ASUS used to be good brands when they were being built here in the US a decade ago.

Laptops used to be built to last 10 years, as did desktops, but thanks to HP and all the other guys moving their factories and jobs to China, they are building disposable laptops and PCs that are only built to last as long as the extended warranties run out; 2-3 years tops! Guess what, there is a rumor that laptops in China are now being made in the same factories over there as Cell. Phones are; talk about planned Obsolescence. Phones are only being built to last the same time period, 2-3 years, so it comes as no surprise that I'm seeing quite a few laptops coming in for repair that aren't even 2 years old yet. Makes you wonder, huh?In fooling around with W10 for over 2 years now, as Mike indicated in his post, you really need a minimum of a 120GB SSD drive in order to fit W10 OS and a few apps; say 5-15 onto that computer drive and have enough space to store some documents, photos, bookmarks, etc.

I tried fitting it on 40-80GB, and there's just not enough room to operate, as once your OS, Office suite such as MS Office 2016 or Open Office, a desktop publishing suite such as Adobe CS Elements3, a security suite such as Avast Internet Security or Norton Security (used to be Norton Internet Security), and some backstop antispyware or firewall programs, and you hit the wall pretty quickly since windows needs a MINIMUM of 25% free space to operate nominally. If you do the Math, on a 100GB drive to make it easy, that only leaves you 25GB for all of those things I just mentioned!

That's ridiculously small, Bro'! At that point in my discussion before, since W10 is so bulky compared to other OSes such as Cell. Phone OSes which are shrunk down to very minimal size such as Android, and IOS (iPhone), it just doesn't make any sense.

You could squeeze more out of that ASUS laptop if you switched to Linux light such as Lubuntu, or Mint, or Puppy-Linux. However, that takes a learning curve which most people aren't willing to do. Imagine the average consumer every 2 years has an aneurism when Microsoft comes out with a new version of Windows, they have to learn that one, then another one in 2 years, another 2 years, etc. Go through the waiting stage since most home users wait 6 mos.2 years before making the jump from all the negative press a brand new Windows version gets. Imagine yourself switching to Linux; how long would that take you to do? I've been fooling around with for 10 years, and am only now building dual-boot machines with W10 and Linux on them. But, how would your wife do if you switched your Laptop to Linux?

Can you train her? Would she be willing? Or would you be constantly bombarded with help requests to do something as simple as read an email or print a document? That's the downside; but the upside is that a lot of the Cell. Phone OSes run on Linux and it has extremely small footprint compared to W10 and is much more suitable for mobile devices with very limited storage capacity. Remember just a few years ago, if your Cell.

Phone had 8GB or 16GB in it, that was HUGE! Such as the iPhone4s. You certainly can't run W10, W8.1 or earlier versions on drives that small as Mike referenced. So, I'm done backing the bus over it; you need to get a bigger drive, or use that laptop you spent hundreds of dollars on as an Internet appliance a la 10 year old Cell. Phone mode.Best,BBJ. Yes, Bigbear. It seems we're falling in the gap of the planned obsolescence once again, this time accelerated by the mobile form factor.

I've resisted buying a laptop for years because they used to be too bulky and then with the netbooks too under powered. As you really do need an ssd you have to fork out at least 300 to get decent space/specs for an item that doesn't last more than a few years. I feel w W10 MS has a system that works on both mobile and pc. The latter used to include laptops but i think it's more of a mobile+ device while hogging a full OS now.As the small mobile os is limited but works ok maybe one is better off buying a convertible tablet and hook it up to keyboard/mouse, saving your files online just in case.

But i still wouldnt buy a Surface type one because for that money i still want a PC with a full OS. If those PC makers are now building things to last only a few years, like you said, i'd be better off getting an old one with a new motherboard and install XP or Vista.Or yes, go Linux. My laptop already runs into issues (not enough memory and dropped internet connection notifications).Or i could jump ship and finally go MAC. But then i'd probably be better off getting an iPhone as well. And i despise iTunes.I wonder if i could get a mobile W10 OS on my laptop?
