Windows 10

Post by Dangerous Bob »

OK so I tried to update the laptop to this the last few days and it turned into a bit of a nightmare.
Seemed to install OK, but then got nothing but a black screen and cursor.

Googled a few sites to find some answers, checked drivers (nvidia) and got it into safe mode to roll them back etc, but all to no avail.
Then tried to rollback to Win7 and it wouldn't have it, so ended up reinstalling win7 from scratch again...

Not going to try it on the main PC until we get 10.1...
Is there a time limit to the free upgrade?

Its 3 months iirc
There was an update earlier in the week that caused boot loops, then a fix to fix it.

Other than that I'm sure theres a garage somewhere with it in...

Wonder how they'll implement this then?

Only relates to Windows services, so basically games you buy from MS in one form or another...
