hi
i have yoga 11e with 4/16gb chromebook with Celeron quadcore n2940 processor.
I installed windows 10 on it but it eats up al the momory with fresh install even after all compaction and trims etc.

So what other os can i install on it ? i removed the chrome os on it because it didnt supported google playstore from android.

Id go for Windows 7 with all updates and off Windows Update, enable firewall and block everything, install firefox and make a firewall exception for firefox. It’ll be stable as stonehenge.

Alternatively install a Linux.

10 is just Vista with [censored] added to it that no one wants. Ditch it for your sanity.

1. Windows 10 LTSC IoT

2. Linux

i have tried windows 7 and its intall always stalls at loading windows screen the first black screen with windows logo ..
i have tried windows 7 64 bit and .. windows 7 sp1

i also love windows7 but will all hardware work like touch pad touch screen wifi and sound etc ?? any spceific version of linux that will give all above functionality will also be best as it would take considerable less space.

my primary usage would be to use it as media player for accessing various cbt platforms and for rdping into my machine

Help with windows 7 install on yoga 11e tablet which came for Chrome OS.as windows y7 installed stalls
