Although I have read a post or two where I8kfanGUI has been installed on a Vostro , no one could come up with appropriate temperature settings. Additionally, users of Nvidia graphics should go into BIOS setup and disable LCD panel expansion; display scaling greatly slows down Windows setup, as the visual effects take much longer to process when panel expansion is enabled.

On my Intel graphics system, I had been using Windows 10 since build in late December Even on such an early build, I encountered few problems.

The graphics driver can be obtained through Windows Update; alternatively, the Intel GM driver for Windows 7 can be downloaded here from Intel’s website. The driver works in Windows 8. If not, run it in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7. While Intel’s chipset graphics struggle with just about any 3D game, performance in Windows is acceptable and all visual effects are snappy. The Nvidia graphics system was not as compliant.

The recommended Dell display driver R , using Nvidia Forceware Metro apps are not stable, and crash upon starting; this includes Edge.
