Dell Inspiron 15
My current machine is 9 years old. This is my first laptop as previous computers were HP desktops. The Inspiron was a black Monday special directly from Dell.
The computer originally came with Vista OS and 2GB of memory. Today I have 4GB memory and Windows 10 and it is more robust than ever!
The battery was failing a few years ago and was replaced along with extra memory. I am very pleased as to the longevity of the computer. Usually I have problems with computers when they hit the 5 years mark.
One thing I did other than keep the OS up to date was to rely on AMC from Iobits to keep the computer healthy, especially the drivers update. I am told by IT experts, normally Vista machines are not Windows 10 candidates because of the drivers.
Good luck with your machine. Let me know if you have other issues. I had computers since the DEC Rainbow. I was one of the first IT expert for a major defense electronics industry.
