I loaded it up one final time and it was good. Installed my files and it was looking pretty good. I thought, finally. I am going to be able to work with my 1520 and Windows 10. Looking great.
But I made the mistake of launching the calculator app and that's when this all came crashing down. The calculator app began to simply flicker uncontrollably. The screen was unresponsive and was tough to turn off. When I got to the desktop again, it would not scroll and when it did it was in sections and not at all smooth anymore. I did a restart and when I put in my pin, the screen would simply shimmy. The battery was full when I did the install but inside 10 minutes the battery was at 10 percent. It was still full, but it would show 10 percent and battery saver kicked in and the system shut everything down abruptly
So I'm back on 8.1.
