The BIOS setup shows it should have 32GB of RAM but there if a note that states something like "not all of memory may be available to all operating systems". As I mentioned Windows 10 has acccess to ALL of the RAM. A friend of mine who works for Dell said it might be incorrect HW drivers that are installed with Elementary (?). Is that possible? As far as he knows the 5510 can dual boot Win10 / Linux without any trouble. | |

I really LOVE how Elementary looks and feels (except for the slowing down) and HOPE I don't have to give it up :( | |
