Well, you can try any windows 8.1/7 disk and perform the upgrade from that. It might allow you to do so.

Hi,

I bought a Dell i5 several years ago and put Linux Mint on it and parked it.  I do not have a recovery disk.  I would like to put Win 10 on it.  Dell says they will send me a USB drive with an image on it for 8.1 for $20.  USB will take 3 days to arrive.

The goal is to install 8.1 on it and then take advantage of the free Win 10 upgrade.

Any work around?

Thanks!!

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
