I recently installed Windows 10 on my Dell Vostro 260. It has a Nvidia EVGA 750ti graphics card, 8 GBs of ram and a core i3 processor.
I have encountered a problem from day 1 of the install that is really annoying. It seems that every second time I boot it up, the start bar doesn't work properly. What happens is; when I click start, the start bar comes up, but I can't click on anything! The items highlight when the mouse rolls over them, and they also flash when I click on them, but nothing ever actually happens! It's really weird!
It's not just the start bar that does this, the lock screen also won't respond when I click on it either. After rebooting, everything works normally. What the hell is going on?!
The only reason I can think of, would be that Dell doesn't support the drivers for this machine. But the only drivers that I needed to install according to device manager, were the sound ones. I installed the windows 7 drivers and the sound works perfectly. Anyway, I fail to see how this issue could be driver related.
Anyone got any ideas?
