        You don’t put in any figures.
        The 25 is the size of the drive he is using.
        Yours will show larger.

                We need to check a few things first before you go.
                I will give some instructions on how to check that all the drivers are installed.

                    I went to bed after installing windows

                    I went to lunch
                    Right click on start>Device manager
                    Do you see any yellow exclamation marks on any of the items?
                    Example pic attached.
                    If no errors pleas try and test . If possible try and play a clip from youtube or music etc to test audio etc is working.

                    Do you need to connect a printer

                        On your computer you should have an MSN number. Can you supply the number.
                        When I put your product number is comes back blank.
                        We will try the MSN number.
                        You will find the product label with the relevant information on the bottom or back of your product.
                        These products belong to the group:
                        Desktop PC, All-in-One-PC

                        Is this a laptop or all in one or a tower pc.
                        What country are you in? I do not need state etc just the country so the drivers match.

                            When I enter your data it comes up blank
                            this site here https://www.medion.com/gb/service/?d...s_updates.htm=.
                            We will have to do about this another way.
                            I will give you some instructions with pics. After I finish work tomorrow.

                            You can use the computer as is for now - just need to fix a few minor problems.
