Comment on Is this machine good enough to install QEMU considering that it runs on windows 10 ?
Danitos@reddthat.com 13 hours agoThere should be no problem I think, but will likely have non-optimal performance. Only was to know for sure is trying. Note you’ll need to enable options in your BIOS.
I insist on the Linux migration. That machine is underspecd for 2026 Windows, plus Windows 10 doesn’t receive security parches. Begineer-friendly distro are very easy to use, and you can try a dual boot setup to see if he can get used to it. For begineers I usually go for Linux Mint, or ZorinOS.
Maybe another option is see if you can upgrade a little bit the RAM.

I know about the issues with windows 10. Probably my brother knows too. When he discards this machine completely, l shall wipe away every single data and make it tabula rasa. Then I shall install MX Linux.
