I bought a laptop with freeDOS installed on his hard disk, then I upgraded the laptop with an NVMe SSD and installed windows 10 pro on it. The freeDOS files are still on my hard disk, can I safely remove them?

Well it has a bios version f17, and no, no one tampered with the bios. Don't worry I never change things in bios without knowing what it does, this is why I'm asking.

So I bought an hp 15 da 1071ne, looking in his bios there is an option called fan always on, is it safe to turn it off? Or my laptop risks overheating?

Well, the windows has a license because it is installed by the OEM (hp), it is activated. What is the safest way to move windows to the ssd? (without losing license)

I'm getting a new laptop in the next few days, the licensed windows is installed on the hard disk, and I will add an NVMe SSD to speed things up. The problem is, I don't want to lose the windows 10 license while moving from hdd to ssd, so please tell me how to do so.

Ok, I will get the hp, better for university.

No, the hp laptop has 12-13 hours battery life, while the lenovo one has barely6-4 hours of battery life because of power hungry cpu/gpu.

Help buying a laptop I want to buy HP Notebook 15-da1013ne for my colleage (computer engineering) , I'm worried about the display, hp states it as SVA, some people say that this is a TN display and SVA here stands for standard viewing angle. An alternative to this is Lenovo L340 (it has ips)...

I want to buy an 2018 laptop because his sucessor isn't available in my country, some people advice me to wait until the end of the year to get a new model. I'm gonna use it for programming. This is what I'm planning to buy :HP Envy 17 It is available for 960$. So, should I wait or get this 2018...

Well ok, this means it won't bother me,thanks!

I am planning to get a laptop with 256GB SSD+1TB 7200rpm HDD laptop configuration. Does the hard disk produce noise? I am very concerned about noise.

Well it has decent battery life (8-11 hours) but my problem that it is an 2018 laptop, is it wise to buy a 1 year old laptop (not used)

I have recently started my university studies in computer engineering, so I need a laptop that can code easy and last for the next 3-4 years. My budget is 1000$. I found this :HP envy 17 ce0015nr The problem is that it isn't available in my country, but his predecessor of 2018 is here. They are...
