Install Linux. Problem solved
Problem replaced*
With a solution
Yes, replaced by a solution
Ok now edit something in word, adobe, old cad programs, etc.
I like linux, but it will never be a main driver. Too much stuff doesn't work and you need to tinker with it to make it work a lot of the time.
These days Linux works out of the box with most hardware (even Nvidia hardware is getting better, less bad boy)
Word? Done. Open office. Want it online? Use google drive or install only office for open source.
Adobe Photoshop? Yeah that is one dick company but fine. setup windows in a virtualbox on a separate desktop.
