      So presumably you can still update an early installed version of 1903 straight up to 1909 with a 1909 ISO you have downloaded – without needing to do all the cumulative updates outstanding and then having to go through the Windows update full download of 1909 process ?

      I ask, because one of the guys I support only has 1 mb broadband (at the very best) but runs 3 machines – so I usually download the cumulative updates and new ISOs for him and give them to him on a USB stick so he can install them off-line and thus make the best use of the very poor connection he has.

            +1 for MicroDream. On my advice a friend has just bought one of these T430s from them (but with a 320 spinner for £180ish).

            When it came I found it hard to believe it had any previous use at all – it was immaculate !

              Quite right WOF 😃 what I actually meant was :-

              If your current PC has an i5-3470 ? (see link below) then the i5-3470 means it has an LGA 1155 motherboard.

              https://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-Compaq-3-20GHz-Windows-Professional/dp/B018UXECX4

              If so, why are you looking at another older generation LGA1155 board to “upgrade” it ?

              My mobile keyboard skills are not too good 😊

                John

                I am a bit confused ?

                If your current PC has an i5-3470 ? (see link below) then the i5-3470 means it has an LGA 1150 motherboard.

                If so, why are you looking at an older generation LGA1155 board to “upgrade” it ?

                          Carpenter ants produce sawdust – not normal dust ?  It looks somewhat different.

                              Sorry Les,  not been able to get home as I hoped this weekend.

                              Still needed here to child-mind the grandsons.

                              Hope to get away from here on Wednesday.

                                  Not sure if I still have it, but I may have an AD785ZWCJ2BGH AM2+ AMD Athlon X2 7850 which according to

                                  https://tinyurl.com/y4qauuwl

                                  fits the Shuttle SN78SH7 (FN78 V1.X).

                                  I’m not at home at the moment, and won;t be back until the weekend to check if I still have it.

                                          The old designation of these screws as 6 x 5/8″ (6 head/5/8″ length) can become 3.5 x 15mm 0r 3.5 x 16mm now according to whoever is selling/measuring them ?
