Question 2

Can Windows 8.1 Professional able to upgrade to Windows 10 Professional?

Accepted Answer

Yes...I was able to upgrade from the windows 8.1 Pro that came installed in this system to the latest version of Windows 10 Pro with no difficulty at all.

Question 3

will itbplay mindcraft correctly?

Accepted Answer

I haven't tried it.  I bought it for a specific purpose.

But based on the specs, I think it should be fine.

However, if you are planning on using this for playing games, this may not be the idea computer.

It doesn't have any expansion slot whatsoever.  I knew it going in.  So it's fine.  But just know that you won't be able to add a video card.

This is really a laptop in a computer case, without the display.
Even the power supply is laptop style with an external brick.

Question 4

Does it have a good graphics card and HDMI port, so it can be used as a HTPC (home theater computer)?

Accepted Answer

It has one DVI port and one VGA port.  The graphics are integrated into the CPU.  CPU-Z reports that the AMD Radeon HD 8330 has 512MB of graphics memory.  Sound is just regular stereo out.  Overall, it's not really a powerhouse machine.  As a general purpose computer it does a good job for a great price.  It might do okay as a Plex media server but I don't think it's a good fit as a Home Theater PC.

Question 5

Can I get windows 7?

Accepted Answer

Take a look at the explanation from Microsoft by doing a Google search for "microsoft windows 8.1 pro downgrade rights" and choose the microsoft article on"Understanding downgrade rights"...clear as mud. It seems it is "technically" eligible, but since you do not get necessary "media" with this system, you may not be able to actually do it. I gave this as a gift to my sister and do not have it immediately available to see if the recovery partition has the potential for the downgrade.
