Computer Maintenance & Repair Review - LG Laptop Gram Notebook PC 17ZD90N-VX50K Freedos Format Windows 10 Installation Review

Good morning. It is a friendly male format master article "male fox" that can install and set up most existing laptops and PCs. "KH com(Kindly Honesty Computer Maintenance Service Engineer" is an abbreviation of "Friendly and honest computer repair business trip AS engineer meeting".

Getting a new laptop is one of the most enjoyable everyday things.

It's my job, of course, but it's also interesting in terms of getting a new, faster and lighter new processor that expresses new technology and performance, but above all, the latest version of Windows 10, which may have become more recent, is very clean and quick to set. Because there is also fun to do.

Moreover, the more new the product is, the slimmer the design and the weight, the more interesting it is to look at it.

In the past, there were thoughts that business traveler repair technicians like us, if they were not additionally installed as SSDs, would not cost much except for the format work, could go a lot, and took more time than assembly PCs. As it was, it is very different now. From Intel 8th Gen Whiskey Lake or Kaby Lake R (Refresh), to AMD Ryzen laptops, it has been significantly faster. And it's also true that most notebook device driver settings can be cleaned only by updating.

At least, from my point of view, meeting laptops is also fun.

It is often mentioned, but nowadays, many famous brand notebooks are also purchased in the form of FreeDOS, that is, without the operating system and in the form of tin PC.

He used to leave the optimization settings for assembly PCs or laptops that would often be used in-house or paid to employees, but this time, the new LG Gram Notebook PC 17ZD90N-VX50K Freedos can PC type, so we I am requesting a format master article from a computer-assisted after-sales service company, Gasan-dong, Geumcheon-gu, Seoul.

Therefore, we will tell the story of the completed Windows 10 installation setting for the LG Can Notebook, which has only DNA (driver installation software).

The case (housing) looks neat and simple. Gram and ultra PCs are rare.

If you expose the packing and unscrew the screws, you can also try self-maintenance and simple upgrades by revealing only the bottom plate.

However, if possible, it is better to purchase the RAM or storage capacity option upwards even if it is more expensive than the first time. If self-maintenance fails, it can crack and scratch, or even hurt your heart.

In other words, if you try to spare, and later regret it, you may not be able to do what you didn't do if you ruin it.

FH (front housing) keyboard and touchpad. Since the FH is quite wide as the screen size of 17 inches, the key arrangement of the keyboard is also faithful to the basics, and the touch pad is also wide.

The color of the pure white looks quite neat, but it doesn't seem too bad to shop for a separate skin.

In my opinion, typing key feels that Lenovo products are better, but this product is also good. 

In recent years, new LG laptops are white, and when you purchase them, only the part with the LCD on the screen is black. It can be said that it is the latest LG notebook product beauty. Although it is an exterior feature.

LG Gram notebook PC 17ZD90N-VX50K's Bios UEFI firmware setup screen.

The processor is the Intel 10th Generation Ice Lake i5-1035g7 (4 core 8 thread base clock 1.2ghz).

When the work peak is reached, the turbo boost pops up to 3.7ghz, and the generous 6mb of cache memory is a low-power concept, but it is not unreasonable to expect that there will be no room for thirst for performance.

Experience has shown that the 10th generation Ice Lake and Comet Lake i5 or higher have a very light click and really fast feel.

The memory (RAM) is about 8G, and there was no separate mobile graphics device (VGA card) as it is a portable concept LG Gram. 

The storage devices are both NvmeSataSSD 256Gb, 512Gb.

If this is the case, the upgrade thirst for storage devices may not be felt immediately.

I would rather rather be better if it is 512 GB with NvmeSataSSD and 1 TB or more with a regular hard disk (HDD),

It is not bad to use both fast and fast SSDs.

However, based on empirical statistics, it is necessary to reconsider relying on SSDs for important content.

Perhaps using an external hard drive or cloud as a supplement, habitual backup will help preserve important data. 

Right side. Oh ~ There are 2 USB ports, but the port spacing is good, so the thick Sandisk Ultra3.0 is plugged in side by side. Without distortion or interference. It is a private opinion, but these days, the USB interval of laptops is good.

Intel 10th generation is also very good, but the meticulous consideration of the USB interval is also my position as a service set-up for a while, not a real user, but it is enough to feel the impression. And miniSD card slot, or T flash memory, can be saved. 

The left side has one USB port, and an HDMI port and Thunderbolt. The Thunderbolt terminal can be switched between C type and USB3.1. Anyway, it is very good. Actually, there are 4 USB ports, and multi-displays can be connected to HDMI and Thunderbolt, and 3 displays, or 2 extension monitors, can be connected.

It looks like a new step, even in practical terms. This may be one of the reasons why you can't save praise even if you wear Gram and Ultra PC. It is also true that one of my values pursues a very pragmatic side. 

The key to select the LG notebook PC boot device is F10.

Two storage devices appear in the selection list, and I select a temporary boot to the Sergei Strelec Win10PE created USB memory bootable in UEFI mode.

LG laptops can be booted with PE operating system formatted in GPT / FAT32 mode capable of UEFI booting when using PE.

With this medium, you can also get PE booting on Apple Mac related products. 

To preserve the DNA partition, we will proceed with the Windows 10 setting with only the empty part at the front.

We will use 512Gb as the operating system drive and 256GB as the D drive data storage area, preserving the DNA partition.

I think 256Gb will be the system drive, but the customer representative answered that the C drive capacity should be better, so I'll install Windows on 512Gb. 

Crystal-Disk-Info checks that it is in a normal state regardless of the initial failure of the storage device.

Define the GPT / UEFI partition format by running DiskpartGUImicro on 512GB NvmeSataSSD,

Apply WinNTsetup and proceed with the format Windows 10 installation. It took 4 minutes and 5 seconds. It's very fast.

Considering that the SSD is used in roughly 10 minutes when using an SSD on an Intel 4th to 7th generation assembly PC, which can be regarded as the average specification, the recent new products are much faster. 

Windows 10 installation is successful. It took a little time for the first setting, but it was so fast that I didn't feel bored at all. It's a very obvious story, but it's set to Windows using UEFI / Quick Boot Configuration.

And new LG notebook PCs cannot be set to Windows 10 in legacy / CSM / MBR state.

Also, although it is more natural to say that, installing and using Windows 7 can be said to be unhappy. Installation is not possible. 

As soon as the first screen comes up, check the Internet.

LG new laptops, if the DNA partition is well preserved, even if the Internet doesn't work right away, grab the Wifi driver in the DNA partition and return the update. Of course, you can try to solve the driver installation by running only the DNA software, but since it takes more time to run it all with DNA, in my case, I prefer to only hold the network adapter device and proceed with the rest. 

That's right. Windows update in the background.

The items related to the cumulative update window are already pre-sealed, so the only items to be downloaded are the device driver missing items. 

Uncheck "Turn on touch pad when mouse is connected" to set the setting to relieve the inconvenience of touching the touch pad when typing when using a mouse. And the smart thing about that option is that you can only use the touchpad when you don't have a mouse. It is natural to use a touch pad as it is without it.

No matter how well you make it, the touchpad is still not as comfortable as a mouse. 

Device driver installation cleanup is completed. As a result of the check, the graphics device is turned to the CPU built-in graphics chip set, and IRIS, the strongest Intel built-in graphics, is included. It doesn't surpass AMD Raven Ridge's vega graphics chip, but it still expects some basic performance beyond. Of course, high-end 3D games and 3D renderings would be difficult.

And since the device drivers are all organized, you can check that the update is up to date. 

And in Control Panel, System and Security, "View basic information about your computer" in the system, there is a link text "Online Support". Click it to go directly to our homecoming cafe page.

In addition, all other drawing-related application and document-related application software requested by customers have been completed. In other words, whatever setting you have done in your company, the settings are set to perfection in an optimized and perfect condition.

Of course, your company's web ERP will be yours.

I tried to catch the network copier, but since the actual user of this product has not yet been decided on where to use it, I decided to do the part related to printer setup and file sharing, so my service mission was completed.

It is always the latest version, and it is possible to optimize the setting with the application you want, and based on the face-to-face experience of many companies and customers, how to set and repair what is the best part for the practitioners? Such empirical data is very rich.

Therefore, if you come into contact with me at the front line where there are companies and corporate customers, I can dare to say that the relationship is long-lasting.

In order to become a master article in both PC repair and format, which are always doing their best,

With faithfulness, passion, and moral good character, we can pursue the role and mission as a valuable human resource in society.

We will do our best to listen to useful business trip articles.

Thanks for reading.
