Mine's 3 years old though, so specs may be older than yours.
The Nvidia drivers are installing but not sure if it got stuck or if it actually takes hours.

About the same age as mine. Came with Win 7 Home, and since then have upgraded to Win 7 Pro, Win 8 Ent, Win 8.1 Ent, and now Win 10 Ent.
Audio:
- NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM) V 1.2.27.0
- Realtek High Definition Audio V 6.0.1.7544
Video:
- Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 V 9.17.10.4229
- NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M V 10.18.13.5560
I hope this helps...

Thanks.
Did a fresh install from scratch - video and sound work now. Video over HDMI is still a problem - it can extend, but cannot duplicate. I see tons of others with the exact same problem on W10 and none of them had a resolution 
Can you duplicate your laptop screen via HDMI on an external monitor or TV?

I have no idea when this disappeared (the duplicate screens option), but that is no longer available as an option that I can see on my machine. I know it was there and working when I had Win 8.x, but MS seems to have removed that option.

Laptop only has HDMI. It's a known issue with NVidea cards with Optimus. The laptop display is on the Intel card and the HDMI uses NVidea. So duplicate won't work as neither card can see each other's monitors for the duplicate-scenario. Extend works as it always has. Freaking pain really. Specially if you want to do a presentation. You'd have to look at the projector to move the mouse!
And yeah, duplicate works in 7 and 8.1 - won't work on 10. They must have changed how two cards interact together.

Surviving the World - Lesson 2713 - Dad Science, Part IV[^]
For some reason, I'm getting the feeling Cannonball doesn't believe her dad this time. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Calendar does the same, but it also sends me reminders & emails, and generally makes every device I own go "bing bong" in the hope that one of them might reach me...

Every month I get email formulated like this: "dear grg12 you have founds on your account... click here to go to paypal...". Looks like clear case of phishing to me so I asked paypal about it. And the answer is - the email is legit, our marketing team sent it, you can easily distinguish it from phishing cause it contains your full name.
Am I stupid to think it's a bad practice?

It's from Paypal, so it's fishing. Right?

That's not the only bad practice.
When I got a phone call saying "Hi, it's [my bank] security department, we think we've found a problem with your account" and I replied "can you prove that's who you are?" all they say is "Well, we called you" as if that proves it is legitimate. (It was them, and there was a problem, but I had to go into branch to find out for sure).
Why can't a bank prove it's them instead of phishers when they call you? They expect me to prove who I am when I call them! And boy, do they get snotty if you try to get them to prove who they are!
