Time to reinstall!
Advice:
First install Windows7 on a partition, and update through the service pack. Next research and disable the windows10 popup in the registry.
Then get an Ubuntu long term support install disk, say 14.04
Pop it in, and it will hold your hand through the process, and notice you have windows and give it an option to load it in the boot loader.
Then install Ubuntu mate desktop, Gnome, KDE, and decide which one you like best!
For when you want to play crappy EA origin games and so on, just choose ole Windows in the startup menu.
Enjoy.

Thanks, I do this for a living, ie I have a business... yes with a business license and insurance... all that crap. This client was happy with staying with 10 after it was determined that the "rollback" was not available. I know but it's their machine/life...
Good advice though for someone that does not do this all the time... nice dual boot although I do like the Mint version.
