[QUOTE=JSWolf;3447790]Get Windows 10. Then you won't have to worry about support expiring like it will with Windows 7. You go Windows 7, you'll only end up with Windows 10 once support is ending for Windows 7. It's better to cut out a step and go Windows 10. There's no need to go to Windows 8 instead of WIndows10.

What Amazon usually does is send you the another Kindle and then you send back the defective Kindle.[/Q

First, I'm kinda attached to a program that I can't use on Windows 10-PrintMaster Platinum 18. It uses the 1.1 net framework which with jumping through a few hoops, I can install on Windows 7. Windows 10, not so much from what I've read, and hoping to be able to use it with the XP mode. I am planning to get Windows 10 on another partition.

Second, I'm on an extended warranty with SquareTrade, but I don't have the original box to ship back my old Kindle; will that be a problem , do you think?

I'll have to call Squaretrade to file a claim. Kinda nervous. Sometimes the power strip works, and then sometimes the light goes out and it won't work at all, until I use a different outlet on the strip, then it works again. Kinda frustrating. So far it's working again. The charging is in and out.
