What is the minimum RAM required for Windows 10?. If you try to move it up with your mouse (to enter the activation code for example - the box for which is right at the bottom of the window), as soon as you let go of it, the window bounces back down so that you can't get to the bottom of it. Even if you put the Task Bar on the right-hand side of the screen, you can't see all the window. I have found several applications (particularly IObit Malware Fighter & IObit Advanced System Care) where the minimum application window size is too big (too tall) for the screen. The biggest deficiency with the 210 is the screen size: a working resolution of just 962 x 600 pixels. Now I must try not to put too many tools on it, otherwise, they will slow it down again. However, it runs a lot better than it did when it was running under Windows 7. I'm not sure if it can even be upgraded to 8GB, thinking about it. Old age must be getting the better of my memory! I just ran Speccy on the HP Mini 210 and it reports that it only has 4GB of RAM, so I must have upgraded it from 2GB to 4GB several years ago.
I hope someone will know how to do it, other wise this nice little PC (which I mainly use when away from home) will soon have to go to the scrap heap! 1809) on a DVD and I have a product key for it that I can use if necessary, but I would prefer to upgrade from Windows 7 if at all possible to save the 'burden' of re-installing all the applications. I have downloaded Windto the Mini 210, but when I tried to install it I got a Microsoft message saying: "We couldn't update the System Reserve partition" - so I have been thwarted once again. I understand that may no longer be the case today. However, at that time, I got a message saying that the Mini 210 graphics were not capable of working with Windows 10. When the new OS first came out (and I received the invitation from Microsoft to upgrade) I tried to update the Mini 210.
With the demise of Windows 7 due at the end of 2019, I'm trying to upgrade my HP Mini 210 to Windows 10.
