Larry, I pass on to you what I've told before. I have two old Dell Vostros with Dual Core processors. They were originally 4mb memory which Dell said couldn't be upgraded because they never certified it as well as not certifying Win10. I upgraded both to Win10 back in 2016, I think, first year available. Now, I upgraded the memory on both to 8mb because I could and it worked fine. I upgraded the processor on one easily. I added an SSD drive to one easily. They both work fine but are getting old, 2007 and 2008 vintage. So, in January I plan to move everything to two Dell Vostro 470s (2013-2014 vintage) with I acquired on eBay for very reasonable prices. They will have i5 3rd gen processors, 8mb of memory, and 1 or 2 terabyte of disk space running Win10 which I've already loaded using the free upgrade. If you want optimal performance from Win10, you should upgrade memory to 8mb if possible, while 4mb will run good. A 3.0 ghz processor or close is good whether dual core, i3, or i5, or i7. Again, changing a processor takes about 20 minutes. Upgrading memory takes about 5-10 minutes. If you can, make upgrades to your PC first. You might also have to go back to the PC vendor and get a BIOS upgrade as I did for my Dell 200, but not the Dell 220. Then upgrade to Win10. When it asks for a product key, give it the product key for your Win7 and Microsoft will issue you a digital key which works just fine. You can contact me off list if you have any questions.
