Will be buying a 1TB to replace my WD 256GB SSD M.2 2280 NVME 3X4, so if I replace it with a !TB 4X4 will that make any difference in performance If I upgrade the board later it will likely support a 4X4 so that’s I’m thinking ahead. What is a good 1TB M2 drive on the market today. I know...

Thank you all for the info keep, anymore keep posting. Appreciate it. Since going to Win 11 very recently I have had many issues & had to reload it to fix some issues & I still have some issues so I intend to replace the M2 & load a new Win 11 & start clean. Plan to change the “C’ to at least...

Or is this just a bunch of BS.

AI Overview Just noticed an AI comment. "It remains functional for Windows 7/8/10/11, but Microsoft recommends upgrading to Microsoft 365 for security." To me what or how critical is the security issue they mention.

Update to the original post. Still having issues with My Office 2003 so with the advice I received I was looking to get office 2016 & found this. Now MS has a "FIX" for only $99 a year (oh yeah) I can get 365, really helpful MS. Any other ideas...

Looking for advice. I like my current PC, (4yrs old). I’m not any kind of power user, just using the web to view news, check on stock accts, e mail and writing letters etc. Don’t do any “major” video stuff or pact’s just the normal stuff. With all that said what can I do to maybe speed up my PC...

I have MS Office Pro 2003 which I only use the Word & Excel portion & have used for years and I really like the simplicity of it & it is all I need. Just Wood & Excel to meet my needs. Now Windows latest update 25H2 took care of that as it no longer supports 2003. I have rolled the update back...

Again Thank You, I will follow your advice so I will do as you suggest, sounds like it will meet my needs ongoing.

Your lead "If off the rails" etc, that exactly describes me daily, Thank you for the comprehensive reply as it really solves the question. I suspected Win11 as the culprit but not knowing how or why but you have clearly clarified that for me. An old saying around for eon's "if if ain't broke...

Recently downloaded Win 11& everything seemed to work OK, but a few issues cropped up. I have a version of MS Office a complete version I have had for years from maybe Win5 or 7 & onto Win 10 with no issues. After the download it worked well but the Save as window would open on the whole screen...
