I guess it it to late now, but a new Win 11 laptop would be a ton faster, and more secure from hackers and malware. Good luck with antique computing.

A year and a half ago I bought a new Win 11 laptop to use for live streaming, as in cutting the cable. It was fast, built for gaming, with an upgrade in memory and solid state hard drive. I bought a fan to go under it and keep it cool. Last summer it got the Windows 11 Blue Screen of Death. Even from the start it wouldn't perform as expected. On a website that had various news and commentary podcasts it would freeze up during breaks and commercials, Besides maybe Norton, no other software was installed.
Two weeks ago I took that one to a computer repair shop. That is why I am not jumping to get a Windows 11 computer. To tell you the truth my favorite Windows was XP. If the Win 11 laptop is beyond repair, might go to a desktop and try Linux from a USB as Jack Diddley suggests.
The Windows 10 laptop did everything my wife wanted. That is why I'm putting time and money into it.
