Since Windows 7 the OS pretty much sort’s things out on its own, (As long as your connected to the internet when installing (Or shortly after) only occasionally asking for a driver disc.
Bill…..with Windows 10, do I need to do any “installing” because I only have a “dial-up” connection…..no DSL.
The OP will probably be better off with a laptop/hybrid
Are you talking about a 2-in-1? A laptop that converts to a tablet?
Thanks
Hi Mark
When you buy your laptop make sure it has been fully updated before they send it out to you, that way any software installation will just be any software you decide to put on it.
Looking at the Specs, (Dell) it doesn’t seem to come with a DVD drive for software installation, so pick up an external USB drive up as well. (They cost every little these days)
2 in 1 are great, as you have all the convenience of a tablet, with all the advantages of a Desktop. (Ideal if you play out live)
I am surprised you are still on dial up, as these days Broadband (DSL) usually works out way cheaper and allows you to do much more.
Most modern keyboards can send Midi Data over a USB cable so that you do not need to buy a separate Midi interface for your computer, (You will still need Midi cables if you wish to connect your keyboard to other keyboards or module’s) plus some will even receive digital audio data via USB so that you won’t even need an audio interface for your computer, (All the D/A conversion is done in the keyboard) you will need to have a look in your keyboards manual to see what it can & cannot do. (If it can’t do any of this, than Midi/Audio interfaces can be picked up quite cheaply from your local pro music store)
Have fun with your purchase
Bill
