Happy News - Crazy Larry - 10-15-2017
I have an old Asus laptop x53e with Windows 7 got so slow it was useless. Finally I googled how to open up the bios. I knew how but as soon as I press the on button I had to immediately hit the delete button....Happy news, I was able to install LL 3.6 and WOW!....new life for the old laptop. It hums along at a pretty good clip now!!!!!!

Welcome to the forum. You're in the right place!
For housekeeping purposes, can you please have your forum profile reflect that you are indeed using Linux Lite 3.6 instead of Linux Lite 3.0?

Please could you do a menu/system/share hardware config to the database to help others newbies who may be in the same bpat as you with the Asus. Thanks and welcome
