Hi Karoly.

 

Do you have this machine? --> http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/servicetag/JHZV83J/configuration

Check if the following information is correct:

- desktop Dell OptiPlex 740

- Original OS Vista 64bit

- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ (Windsor?) 2.2GHz Socket AM2 - May 23, 2006 - ADO4200IAA5CU

- 4GB RAM (2 sticks): SAMSUNG DDR2 M378T5663QZ3-CF7 Non-ECC/Non-Registered PC2-6400 CL=6 800MHz 1.8V

- BIOS 2.2.7 (latest)

- I didn't find the video card (NVidia?)...

 

Could you check what video card is installed?

Did you install windows 10 on that machine? Dell say they don't support windows 10 on that machine, or they didn't test it.

You can also try to move your ram sticks from dimm3 and dimm4 to dimm1 and dimm2 (they are the couple further from the cpu).

And given that you are at it, did you remove the dust from your hardware components (fans and all over the motherboard)?

As i supposed your hurdle, you are not working properly in chrome just because of nvstor.sys file error  this obstacle can be overcome through the updation of required applications or those files which are creating  issue.
