"Hi there lil' youngster *Ahukh-hyuk-hyuk*"
the only time you should use Internet Explorer is to download another browser
Lol
But my question is what?
Google chrome?
Internet Explorer; #1 Browser for downloading browsers.
lol yes it is
+Brendan Stubbs What happens if you uninstall Internet explorer and can't acces the web anymore??? ;)
hrhr no
*Installs Norton illegally*
Runs Norton Scan
*Norton successfully deletes itself*
haha
lmao
that would be cool!! :D
System 32
Instructions not clear, deleted system 32. (This was super helpful for me tho, never used windows)
Captinpixles ye
+Captinpixles 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅the dark side
The tiny line above your profile picture drives me crazy
Can somebody tell me what system 32 is?
+Armando Manuli Basically it has all the important system files that windows needs to run. If you delete it, you will have to repair windows.
You used IE for too long. I cried. First thing to do: download and install Chrome/FireFox and do everything else in the video with Chrome/FireFox.
if i break something i will blame you and yes you will take responsibility
k
Agree dude, when i Just heard it i was like "so, Who i'm going to blame on if i brake something D:? "
lool exactly
Matias Miranda your self is the one to blame cuz you downloaded not him
Yes...you may be rigth :v
Step one: use internet explorer to download Chrome
Step two: Set chrome as default browser
Step three: install add block for Chrome
Step four: Enjoy!
30 days later...
NORTON EXPIRED

My guide to life; spread the word guys, if anyone goes on someone elses computers, just do this.
Schicken Phartso Chrome is the best browser though but Opera is getting better and better also.
Chrome is garbage.
Step 1: Do a clean install.
Done :D
+BowGunner Yeah, I'm a little baffled as to why he basically shows you how to clean up the existing install. Maybe this was aimed at people who are complete noobs who would find a complete OS install daunting.
Actually, what baffles me is why I'm even watching this. I already know what to do. For some reason when I get bored I end up watching how to videos for things I already know how to do lol.
PeugeotRocket I do the exact same thing when I'm bored! :D *high five*
BowGunner Lol high five :D
+PeugeotRocket
I do that alot aswell. I have no idea why i like to do it. I just do.
+BowGunner Step 1: Install linux
This is such a disgrace. A brand new computer should never require cleaning. Imagine buying a brand new car and having to vacuum the inside and change the oil just as you drive out the car dealer.
It actually should. Unlike cars, these computer tend to have unwanted software that the builder put in to advertise some product. Even if you uninstall it, some of the unwanted file will stay in your computer or hard drive. That's when cleaner come in handy.
My point exactly. The presence of unwanted software IS the disgrace.
boi
I do that with my phone so it lasts longer, my previous phone lasted 4 years
First thing you should do with a new laptop? Reimage the entire machine.
Nuke that shit from orbit.
i like norton because its easy to steal i mean use
+Dave Dumas XD
+Dave Dumas funnnyyyyyyyy
I know that many people hate windows 8 but after you've used it a couple of week you'll get used to it and then it's not bad at all.
If you use it a couple of weeks and you like it, probably your mom was not human
guyver2095
she didn't choose the laptop, i did. Windows 8 is like the new Windows Vista and Windows 10 will probably be like Windows 7.
---
You've probably never even given win8 a shot.
Jonaz lol yeah windows 8 is alright....not even that bad. just ew and different. but yeah windows 10 will probably be better. but damn os x is for me though. simple clean and sexy looking. works perfectly fine for me
Jonaz
I use win 8 sometimes, but I found it Horrible, and childish every time. I guess some people like it because they identify themselves with those characteristics
guyver2095
I like both windows 8 and 7, but i do like 7 over 8 and it's not because of the "new" metro. It's because of all the errors in 8 that still to this day has not been properly fixed, like the windows update that don't do shit and installing new metro apps that never begin downloading.
It's usually perfectly fine to install multiple programs at once. Usually, unless they are drivers.
I wish I knew about Ninite a few years ago.
Me too brother... Me too..
This helped me out so much mate. Thanks a lot.
Just started setting up my new laptop great video!!
"I tell the computer what to do, you don't tell me what to do" That line perfectly describes the difference between IT people and the rest of the world.
I use Microsoft Security Essentials. 6 years and works great for free!
yeah.. never had to use any bloated anti-virus programs ever again.. :)
What I do when i get a new laptop-
1.clean format it
2.scrub the laptop clean off windows-stupid-8
3.install windows 7..THANKGOD!
4.install right programmes and drivers.
5.enjoy my new laptop.
DONE!!!
why all the h8 for win8? it as bad as people keep saying, works best with a touchscreen. i am running win7,8.1 and 10 and there isnt anything "wrong" with in 8.1...... the metro ui should be optional (and it kind of is at this point) but thats about it really.
1toncheese win 8 actually handles some thing faster than win7 but i just dont like how it looks.
People don't want change, what we want is a better win7
Luke Obrien
and win10 is almost that with some of the good win8/8.1 things thrown in.
1toncheese I'm with you man. I don't know why people dislike win 8 so much. it is actually better than 7. If you don't like the start screen (metro UI) don not use it. The new version (win 8.1) allows you to do just that. And the new upcoming update will also bring the start button back. Stop judging by appearance guys or because someone said is bad. Technology is evolving and so are we, if you do not like it stay with you Win XP that was a century ago.
Adrian Barat
Metro, yes metro de chile! te van a dar....
Liked the video, commenting and about to subscribe. Very well presented and detailed video, Keep up the great work man!
With all these Linux arguments I have devised a chart to explain who should pick which OS you should choose:
Linux Based: tinkerer
Windows: Gamer/business
MAC OS: the technologically retarted
But if your a tinkering gamer... well playonlinux is pretty good.
+kenkraken actually anything else is also just as good for video/photo editing
***** oh so could you kindly explain why?
***** you have lost all logic
***** then why waste your time talking to me
***** I am open minded so long as whatever it is actually based on facts, macs (for the money) are NOT worth it, unless you are bad with tech, in which case it is easy to navigate and is intuitive. my first computer was a mac and it was great until I wanted to use it for anything other than Web browsing and Ms word. other than that Windows is the best all around os and most Linux distros are my favorite options, however I use Windows due to the nearly universal compatibility of the NT kernel.
Or, just format the thing and install a linux distribution. All that pre-installed software.. Gone..
Linux is trash. If I wanted Linux, why wouldn't I buy a Linux computer in the first place? No, I want Windows, I'm not gonna throw out an OS that I paid for.
Jack Maxfield why pay for OS when everything is free...!
Because there are few computers out there that comes with a linux distibution pre-installed. Better off getting a laptop that comes with a installation disc of Windows, this way you can play around with your computer a lot more. If you'd ever want to go back without much trouble.
HoRzeNTarI today you can download everything from all the web sites, torrent trackers etc and install all if you want and again... for free :D but you have to decide if you want to use cracks and all the mumbo jumbo or pay :)
Yeah, but if you want a gaming computer better stay with windows...
Really Enjoyed This, Keep up the Good Work :D
Most useful video I've watched in ages, just got a windows 8.1 notebook and getting a proper strat button again has taken away a lot of the frustrations I've been having with it.
Why is everyone so against the new start menu? After using 8.1 for just a month or two, Its actually really grown on me.
yes...it does. the tiles ARE the start menu.
*****
good question
Eden Allen
it is recommended not to do that as it can cause the computer to malfunction or not work properly since it changes the that system file as well as the directory of that file. im not saying dont but take a huge think about it before changing any part of the O/S, even if its just changing to the the way it performs or look as it can do some harm to the O/S possibly causing you to re-image or re-format the computer. Just think about it before even considering doing it and take note of the risks that come with it
chris johnson
bullshit, changing the user interface does not affect the computer function.
***** , infact yes it can since your not only changing the user interface, but the files that go along with it. i think i know what im talking about since im studying I.T.
first thing I do is to install antivirus app to keep my pc safe. Next i install my favorite FolderChanger app to manage my documents easily. You can find it when you google "FolderChanger"
Thank you for the tips!
I have not recently gotten a new computer but I just watched the whole of this video... keep up the good work!
The biggest thing the decrapifier needs to delete is win8, :)
Step 1: download chrome
Step 2: uninstall IE
This guy gets it! Step 3: install Adblock
+TonyDaExpert no
are you noob step 1. you unistall chrome
step.2 install ie 12
dude any verson of IE sucks...cant install minecraft from it.... cant install anything from IE
technogamer awsomeness if you can't install anything from ie then you would have no programs (other than the windows programs)
Awesome video! Realy helpful.
I love those vids that you make. Thanks!
Thumbs up if you're watching it in 2016
Fuck you
"anti-viruses is a scam " - Linux user
Julien Vandal well that does not change the fact that they scam people, I used Windows without anti virus and firewall off for around a year and never had any problem. people just over Exaggerate about security and privacy
Mse7en True, just keep off of bogus sites. I haven't had an anti virus for years and my computer is still good.
HP Pavillion, beats, Quad core, AMD. I just upgraded to a Yoga 900.
that is very true, for years i have stayed away from AV, FW and malware (including turning off windows annoyances). However software security companies are targeting/preying on computer illiterate people by invoking fear (I have friends that spend alot of money on antivirus software, asking me why their pc is so slow; they have 2-3 antivirus software running at the same time, I question why do you have 3 AV installed? Answer: "my pc was running slow" .. I SMH...its sort of ironic.) Next target is of course Corp.Companies they pay a pretty penny on a plethora of AV,FW.. and then some due to the many idiots that they hand a PC to. I don't blame them though, I have seen people try to do stupid stuff with company Pc's and not know it.
I don't really see a big difference between a windows/linux/mac... you open the wrong email, click the wrong link then any machine is vulnerable; however, that windows is noticeably "attacked" more because it is the most widely used operating system.
www.linux.com/learn/myth-busting-linux-immune-viruses
happy surfing people!
I would recommend using at least one av but hay just my opinion. Just because you can be careful and not download any thing there is still a bit of a risk. If you use skype or other applications to talk to people online that are not that secure. You might want one also ads can give you a virus. So you could have to go to a web site with ad block turned off and might get a virus and never know it the same can be said for unfamiliar web sites. I do agree though they kinda make a big deal out of it some times. And yes Linux can be hacked too but it is a bit more rare for viruses to be on Linux. But I would still recommend getting an av.
I mean a free av not a paid one that is probably a bit to much unless your a big company. Or just a very concerned person who has a lot of targets on his/hers back.
This is great, you should make a PART 2... let me rephrase that, please do a part 2 Logan!!
Nice video man!
When he said PC Decrapifier i Died.
Agent Isaiah (C) DECRAPIFIER

+Agent Isaiah (C) what happened when he said decrapifier?
+Agent Isaiah (C) ok
Step 1: Install Ubuntu.
....
There is no step 2.
mattorama I'd prefer using Mint over Ubuntu though, closer to the feel of windows xp/7.
Fedora is linux right? Im stupid wit this kinda stuff and i was wondering if fedora runs steam games because i had both ming and ubuntu for awhile and they did not install steam games
The Shaman Ey b0ss, fedora is linux. I've had steam on all of those systems as well as crunch bang and they all run steam and can install games.
U sur b0ss?
The Shaman Ye, you just have to make sure the game is available for linux
Thank YOU so MUCH ! This is an awesome start guide. for a new laptop... maybe you can do another video for codecs I'm not sure if you need codecs seperately from the media install files...
thanks, this was both helpful and informative.
You forgot to install a sandboxed browser program. You should always sandbox websites you're not familiar with or when doing random browsing. And the only time I use chrome is for my google profile (youtube, google+, gmail, etc). And, as an IT guy, I agree that Norton is garbage. I'll get a clients computer and they have been running Norton for a couple of years. I wipe it immediately and run a scan with Kaspersky and always pick up adware/viruses that have been just chilling on their computer. Norton is like a teenaged girl on her cell phone looking her nails.
sep (norton) is great in an enterprise environment, but for home users its terrible
Norton is like one of those weirdos that when u go home and they waite and hide in ur bed for u hahahahaha
Very useful stuff. Thank you very much for this.
I remembered this video from a while back, came in handy now that I got a Gaming Laptop for Christmas.
Instead of these things just perform a clean installation of windows.... that's it...
that's what I do
is it safe to do, though? Will it break anything in my computer? Also how do you perform a clean installation of windows?
spider- man download .iso of windows 10 original from Microsoft using media creation tool and burn the image on dvd/pd...then format c drive then login to ur Microsoft account and activate the windows 10...it will delete all ur data from primary drive(mine is c drive) and it will perform fresh clean installation....
Kedaar Kulkarni can you still do this right after you downloaded an app? i just downloaded google chrome and i just want to make sure
regardless of what apps and data you have on your hard dive, you can still download and install a fresh version of windows 10. I bought my MSI ge62vr apache pro that came with norton and stuff and I simply downloaded the ISO into a usb, booted up my pc with it, and did a fresh install. I am no tech expert at all, and I was able to do the installation in less than 15 min (not counting downloading the ISO)
@Jeff Sharpe No thanks. I'm fine with Windows 8.1 and it's much better Start screen.
Awesome, very helpful ty!
just surfing the net before bad and found this video and I already do 99% of this stuff but really felt entertained as I watched and listened to him explain what to do.
clicked on like and subscribed nice video well explained.
First thing to do? Install Manjaro Linux, using the whole drive.
Gets rid of all the crappola and you'll end up with a super clean und super duper OS.
All done :)
Gaming though.
Arch please
The only thing windows has over Linux is gaming. Linux has everything else over both windows and Mac. Windows DOS was copied from the Unix bash shell and Mac is just a distro of Linux. Thus Linux is the the big daddy of all computers. As an ex-Windows lover, a coder and a pc builder I can tell you from my experience Linux is amazing. (PS, both ios and android are both distros of linux as well ;)
*****
Huh? Under Linux my machine is more useful than ever before and doesn't need any TLC. What kind of super special software are you using that can't be reeplaced by an open source version?
*****
Not entirely true, Zakary. Now that Valve have ported the steam engine to Linux and even made their Steam OS a Debian derivative, Linux is like totally taking over the gaming sector as well.
Also MacOS is a mutant of BSD ... which is a mutant of Linux as well, okay.
Best comment about Linux I just heard from Chris at the Linux Action Show: "ppl don't use OSes, pppl use applications. It doesn't matter on what OS their fave app is running on. In a couple years Linux will power our universe and most ppl won't even know it."
IE is now awesome (faster than Chrome and it blocks 99.9% of malware). The Start is excellent if you know how to use it and not be a jerk about a little change. Don't use Bing ? Change it to Google and let them collect private info about you. AVG ? LOL. CCleaner is not needed at least for a new PC. DAFUQ is StartIsBack ??? Ok, downgrade the whole start to the shitty old one. Might as well get Windows 7 for that, hell, get XP and you'll be golden.
i agree with the fact u should just get used to the new start or downgrade to 7 instead of installing some other bullshit that makes it look different, But i completely disagree about what u said about IE. i dont care what u do to IE its still shit, just use firefox or chrome. Also i like to have CCleaner on all my pcs, and despise AVG.
tyler97 Have you ever even tried IE11 ?
I honeslty agree that it's kinda fast, but I still stick to Chrome because of all the extentions, and that you can sync bookmarks and history.
penguiz23 There is an auto-sync that is seamless on IE when you have Windows 8 or above that's enabled when you log in to your PC with your Microsoft Account. I guess Chrome works when you log in to your Google account. The only difference here is that you'll have to log in to your whole Windows for IE to sync instead of just logging in to the browser itself (which I must do anyway when I turn on my PC). I don't really need extensions, in fact it's your choice what browser you'll use and I'm OK with that. Although I'm not OK with people saying IE is very slow making memes out of nothing and hating on Windows 8 when they haven't even tried it. I can't say Chrome is crap just because I use IE, and neither should those that use Chrome say the same thing about IE because they just install anything else out of bad talk or hatred towards IE. If you've tried IE and for some reason you like Chrome or FF or anything else better then go for it, just don't say IE is bad if you haven't even tried it. For me I don't like being wrapped around Google when browsing the web and that's the main reason I don't use Chrome. I tried FF and it's also very good and fast but I didn't like the scrolling action and that's too important, it's kinda choppy when compared to IE or Chrome (maybe it's just me ?). The point is to be unbiased, people. And choose what you like without hating on everything else there is to choose.
Windows 8 is pure bullshit, their forcing a tablet friendly OS onto desktop and laptop users. I honestly don't really care in google takes my info, as long as they don't give it to 3rd party im completely fine, Though I think i see a microsfot fanbboooooyyyy
dude...thanks about this start is back thingy!!!!! now I can use my start butten as the ol'e times!!!!
incredibly helpful. thank you
does ninite give you the latest versions of the apps?
yes
"Using Bing... Oh good lord"
I'll be getting my new Optimus V next week and ill be sure to follow your steps, thanks! I can't wait xD
A big thank you from Norway.
I tell computer what to do! lol why I watch this channel
When you buy a computer with Windows these should be the first steps you do:
1-Uninstall Windows.
2-Install any Linux distribution. Ubuntu is fine.
3-???
4-Profit.
LOL step 4.... profit... THanks underpants nomes! lol
When you buy a computer with Windows these should be the first steps you do:
1-Uninstall Windows.
2-Install any Linux distribution. Ubuntu is fine.
3-???
4-Profit.
5-No gaming
6-Reinstall Windows and steam
Sèna Gangbè In the first place there is Steam in Linux. In the second place, I don't give a fuck about losing my time with a bunch of clonic FPS and the uninspiring indies that make up 80 % of the catalog anyway.
abelcowl Then use origin :p
I don't fully agree, it is better to have Windows as the host OS and virtualize any Linux Dist. You can have the best of both worlds.
Just what I needed to see. I ordered a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 15.6" Notebook Computer, Intel Dual-Core i5-3230M 2.6GHz, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD, Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and I have been trying to figure out the best way to get rid of all the junk... I'm sure if I fallow your tutorial I will have a smooth running Machine.. I'm glad I got a machine with windows 7. I might want to go look at your other tutorials to make sure i don't miss nothing.. thumbs up. I subbed..Oh I already am...lol
Your wallpaper just hit me so hard in the nostalgia that I immediately ordered "Out Of This World" off of eBay. Thank you.
Dude Classic Shell is free and looks just like the Win7 start menu.
Gazza B windows 10 is also free
+Bart Breedveld but invades privacy just stick win 7 or 8.1 with classicshell
+People Have Generic Accounts But isn't the update that invades users' privacy being pushed to 7 and 8.1?
MSI...love their products
Same. My current graphics card (GeForce 650) and future (GeForce 750 Ti) are/are going to be MSI.
Wimpywolf If I were you, I'd get the EVGA 750 Ti FTW. But, the MSI variant is great too.
Do you have a more current video of this? Sorry, I just found this and found it excellent!
oooh, I've never heard of ninite before :) Thanks for the video!
first thing you should do? Sell it, or either fire it into outer space, you may think this would be pointless or too expensive?, just turn it on run something like battlefield 4 and then set it outside on your drive, with battlefield 4 running. Give it 2-3minutes and the amount of heat generated from the CPU/ heat-sink/ fan, will make the heatsink fan turn momentarily into a pulse rocket, propelling the laptop to orbit within 100th's of a second.
and then...buy a desktop. you wont have to bolt your laptop down then. Imagine if you overclocked the laptop :0, id think it would reach the sun with the amount of heat generated with those things.
Lol, but seriously laptops are for everyday use. Want to play games buy a desktop far more superior.
Correction: build*
Sorry, build ;D. mines custom built by myself. quad 5ghz :).
Step 1: Install steam
Step 2: Go to any gaming related forum/video to laugh at console peasants
Step 3: Praise your ruler, lord GabeN
Cg, you are now part of the masterrace
I honestly prefer console. I don't really care to much about the other stuff you get on PC because I'm always focused on being the best one, not having the best looking game.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't see the need for pre loaded hardware or software. It's just a matter of finding what you don't need. Thanks for the guide, this opened up my eyes way more than before.
You are very well-spoken... Great video
is you delete system 32 the pc is faster than usain bolt
youre right, i tried this and the screen does everything so fast that it appears black!
+Jeremy Hocqué Ayy
the joke would make sence if your english did
+BeLLinJeLLy im spanish , my english is bullshit
+BeLLinJeLLy your comment would make sense if you spelled correctly
In Soviet Russia, Computer tell you what to do
That background is totally Out Of This World!
Wow, thanks a lot for the video! I learned a lot and I'll be doing a factory restore on my laptop to get rid of all the bloatware.
You're funny. xD
"Windows is all, hey dude you got no virus protection."
"No shut up...windows. Computers don't tell me what to do."
damn Ninite is a awesome website!!!
Subscribed Thanks for sharing
excellent info thanks
DO I DO THE EXACT SAME THING FOR WINDOWS 10?
answer this plz
like windows 10 :^)
+Elfenliedd Old comment now but whatever.
I recommend looking up videos on privacy settings to look over when using Win10.
Things might have changed since I went back to Win7 about 2 weeks after trying out Win10 about a year ago but there were all kinds of annoying crap where the computer would send various data to Microsoft unless you thourougly went through all settings related to privacy.
THEY REMOVED MINESWEEPER!? D:
WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW!? Dx
***** Oh. Ok.
...
o.o
I don't like internet explorer because it's to complicated XD. But I'm not sure if it has gotten better, I might as well get ie
Lol how is it complicated? IE is actually the simpliest out of all the browers.
true, it can read most html stuff. better than google. but i like google because it basic
Ilikeduhrice Nummy It's not better than Chrome.. chrome can read more complex script links that IE cannot. And like I said , so is IE basic too.
im confused now
Ilikeduhrice Nummy If you put google.com then space you can use google search from the url bar.
Thank-You!!!!!! So much, you don't know how happy I am. I'm a new college student and brought a laptop from HP. It was getting on my damn nerves, with all of the McAfee Bs as well as Norton, but looking up this video fixed all of my problems, well for now anyway. Plus the vid was entertaining! P.s. One question, "should I uninstall internet explorer if I have chrome now"? -New Subbie!!!!
Thanks, very useful!👍
Put SSD on it. Upgrade RAM
No shit expert appeared :D maybe laptop already has a sdd and enough RAM?
SSD may be fast but at $1 a GB and a life span of 3 years I will stick with my 30s boot time on a regular HDD
***** That's no longer the case, but enjoy your long load times.
pulpbits
Long load times? I had a HDD with SATA that loads fine. I am in no rush for my games I can wait.
***** right now thats how much pcie ssds are. regular ones are around 50-65 cents a gig
When he selected AVG I died inside... Seriously AVG.
+Dawgidy Dawg it used to be
***** its worse than norton.
+ALPHA CANIS MAJORIS i got the same one. top notch antivirus very light on top of it, so doesnt slow down your pc at all
+Flajarkin what do you use? ive only used avg and i still have viruses -_-
Zane018 i just run malwarebytes every month. no infections in 10 years
im just about to get a new laptop so this was really good thanks youve helped alot
Thanks mate , it really helps :)
Remove W8,
Install Linux !
Dima Boychev Ever tried Vista ?
fliteshare Ew. Never speak of that atrocious disaster called Vista again. When it comes to Linux, it is good, but it will never become mainstream because it is stuck in a vicious loop of "Companies won't develop for it because the user base is too small because companies won't develop for it because the user base is too small."
Ryan M Companies don't need to develop for Linux. Millions of geeks worldwide are developing it, at a rate of 4300 lines of code PER DAY (in 2008)
/watch?v=L2SED6sewRw
Nothing can keep up with that.
It is more a fear of open sourcing their software development that keeps most companies from investing / working on Linux.
BTW the MicroSoft conversion program from Vista to W7 was a Linux module (published by MicroSoft) and so is oneget (the new W10 package manager) an open source program.
Hear it from the horses mouth:
www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/2khkpo/
This proves to me that it is MicroSoft that has a problem keeping up with the onslaught of open source (read LInux).
Linux is tech geeks' wet dream. Fairly useless for content consumers and desk workers.
Might well be true.
But once you got Linux going right.
It has the friggin coolest user interface ever.
/watch?v=4QokOwvPxrE
Don't tell W8 users they could have a desktop looking just like that and for free as in zero dollars ! They might feel shafted by M$.
What to do when you get a new notebook/laptop/pc?
Install Linux.
Luuk van Riel I don't play much games on my computer because most of my friends play on consoles. All the games I play on computer though are completely compatible with Linux. As for editing software, many TH-camrs that I watch have no problem with that whatsoever.
I have the best of both worlds! Linux Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on Desktop at the house, and Windows 8.1 on Laptop. Although Windows 8 and 8.1 is kind of garbage, I would rather have 7, but hey, I can't afford $140 for a OS.
Luuk van Riel More and more PC games are becoming multi-os compatible. Minecraft, LoL, Dota, Steam (most steam games), and Starcraft are compatible across all 3 major OS. (Linux, Windows(7+8), and OS X)
Luuk van Riel I guarantee that in the next 5 years, Linux will be compatable with any and all programs and games you would ever want. With the introduction of SteamBox, which runs on Linux, many game devs. are going to make their products Linux friendly, and with that rise in popularity, major software corporations such as Adobe will have no choice than to make their products compatible with Linux out of the box. Oh, and by the way, with a little bit of effort, the internet, and half a brain, you can install non-native software on Linux.
Luuk van Riel so true too. I've been gaming exclusively on gnu/linux machines now. I used to have to set up a microsoft machine years ago.
you have a nice sense of humor!
liked your Norton monologue😂
WOW Thank You so much you really did save me a lot of headaches, Im an older guy and it,s a little hard for me to understand some of this. So I will be doing this on my HP 17 Pavalion. You made it look so easy Thank You and Good Luck.
First thing to do with any pc: erase all the hard drive's contents, then install your favorite linux os :-)
Until there's a little bit more game support for it. I can't say I'd get rid of windows.
Phillip Ragazzo That's mainly because you've already invested money in your windows games and want to keep playing them. My situation is completely different, I always played on a console and when I switched to PC-gaming, I already ran linux 100% of the time, so I had no games that depended on windows, currently I only buy games that are linux compatible, and when they aren't I e-mail the publisher that I'd like to pay double the game's price if they add in linux-support.

norton is awesome!
For viruses. They're known for putting on viruses. My old Vista laptop had Norton ad it wouldn't let me use the laptop unless I paid for Norton.
RetroGamer72 well i have been using norton for a long time and nothing like that has happend
MLCgames
Ah. Maybe it got better over the years.
norton had a reputation for high CPU usage a while ago but norton started to get better in 2010 and is way better than the dreaded McAfee... the 2014 version is really good, i will admit some older version of norton were not very good but norton is really good now, not the best but still is good. there is a AV i think is better than norton but cost more so i just pay for norton and have malwarebytes as well to scan for the virus's and have norton to stop them
but for a free AV i recommend avast
MLCgames AVG Is definitely the best though.
Awesome vid dude, Keep goin'!;)
great vid dude
