Chromebook

A Chromebook runs Google Chrome OS. It cannot be purchased with Windows. It uses the Linux kernel, and the Google Chrome web browser with an integrated media player.

It is designed to be used while connected to the Internet and support applications that reside on the Web, rather than traditional PC applications like Microsoft Office and Photoshop that are installed on the machine itself.

You might(?) read about someone who has installed Win 8 on a Chromebook, buy you're most likely hearing about someone who is using a remote desktop (which will also assess Mac & Linus systems). The Chrome Store has VNC clients for connecting traditional VNC servers. Chrome has Google-built remote desktop features that can be uses to access your desktop PC from a Chromebook or to remotely run Windows applications.

To actually install Windows on a Chromebook, you have to hack it's BIOS settings, which is very difficult. You open your Chromebook, removing all the screws on the bottom and then wrap electrical tape around the BIOS to stop the protection activity, allowing you to hack the BIOS. Then, you remove boot loader settings by hitting F4 and change the sequence.

Then you flash the BIOS.

Then you can install Windows 8. You will not be able to use a CD or DVD ROM drive since Chromebooks can't access one, not even an external one - you'll have to install it from a flash drive.

It varies, but when I had to replace a cracked screen on this Chromebook I was charged about $100. It took them a little over a week to get the part, then replaced it in 20 minutes while I waited.

But then considering that I only spent about $150 to buy this Chromebook in the first place, it was a bit of a trade off of either replacing the screen or buying a new Chromebook! I chose to get the screen.

It depends on what situations does it cause it to freeze. Is it after startup? Or after it was asleep? You could do a factory reset (called "Powerwashing"), which might solve this issue. Keep in mind though that any data you saved on the Chromebook could get lost after the reset.

I'm not experienced with other things, but pretty sure Chromebook is still a PC. Yes, it can download mods, like regular PCs.

Yes, the Acer Chromebook and all its variants have a built-in camera.

i hope so yes

It could be a case where you have too many tabs opened at once. If you're pushing the resources of your Chromebook to the limit, it would certainly cause it to heat up. Depending on what kind of Chromebook you have, you could upgrade the internals such as the RAM or the HD (swap out to a SSD, or a better SSD), or set the device on a well ventilated surface, or limit the amount of tabs you have opened.

No but you can use the Google version, "Drive"

one word no, its like 16gb unless you want to play plants vs zombie on 'onlive' and there is not a good gpu

Google's Chromebook Support and Help Center number is 855-836-3987. You would need to specify which kind of Chromebook you have (manufacturer, model number, etc.). You can also contact them by email or online chat.

Yes. Since Study Island is browser-based, and can run on Chrome, which is integrated into a Chromebook, it should be possible to run the software.

If a Chromebook was stolen before it was set up and connected to a Wi-Fi network, tracking it is highly unlikely. Chromebooks rely on being connected to the internet for location tracking through Google's services. If the device remains offline and unconfigured, it won't communicate its location or allow for tracking. However, if it is set up and connected to a Google account later, it may be possible to track it using Google's Find My Device feature.

Yes, you can play "7 Days to Die" on a Chromebook using Steam, but it requires a few steps. Since Chromebooks primarily run Chrome OS, you will need to enable Linux (Beta) or use a game streaming service like Steam Link or GeForce Now to access your Steam library. However, performance may vary, and it's important to ensure your Chromebook meets the necessary system requirements for optimal gameplay.

No, the AverMedia capture card isn't available for Chromebooks.

To brighten your Chromebook screen, locate the brightness keys on your keyboard, typically represented by a sun icon. Press the key with the sun icon and an upward arrow to increase brightness. Alternatively, you can click on the time in the bottom-right corner of the screen to open the Quick Settings menu, where you can adjust the brightness slider.

As of the Versions 62.0.3202.97 and up You press ALT and Search at the same time.

In a way yes but you can still do things like word processing.

Wrong, you can get just about any software you want, but the ChromeBook was designed as a Netbook client so much of the software will reside (and often run) on a remote server.

However there is a small amount of software that can be installed and run directly.

1. Go to the Start Menu
2. Click Control Panel
