    Win10 upgrade damage control: so far lotsa folks reported issues w/video drivers (fixable), some others w/wifi drivers (ez fixable), but overall mood is rather positive. So, if anyone was "Gone with the Windows", i.e. got into the critical issues causing PC's fatal errors? Btw, I've also noticed that the digital-era "War of Roses" (i.e. Mac vs. PC) kinda intensified these days: here's a good ol' video joke in this regards: Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates | Epic Rap Battles of History[^] :-D ... Interestingly, the friend of mine with very long track record of Microsoft development recently posted about Win10 running smooth on Mac (in Parallels). Just couple words to add in this aspect: The personal experience with computer HW/SW could be very different from the institutional one. Statistically, running business on PCs is less expensive than on Macs. I've personally built several hundred PCs and can tell you that if it's done well in the first place, then it works for years. But, as a former electrical engineer, I also have a high appreciation for the quality of HW design and overall ergonomic sophistication of Apple's products. So, in one sentence, it's kinda a choice between "Lamborghini on the Desktop" and a regular workhorse like Toyota Camry, metaphorically speaking... :)

    Installed fine. Currently I have a bunch of Windows update which fail to install. And Diablo Windowed mode is all screwed up (but full screen is fine) Multi tasking is way better. I download stuff and play Diablo fine! I can download heaps of stuff and listen to web radio fine. Everything is smooth! I did have Edge crash once on me and Explorer freeze after dragging file into VS2015

      After upgrading yesterday evening, I had no network connections. I've downloaded potential driver fixes from Dell and will implement them after I'm done browsing here. Don't know if it will work. It could be a long weekend ahead.

        Cool! What's form-factor? If any touch-screen stuff tested (in case it's applicable)?

          Yeah, similar thing reported by the friend of mine, but it was relatively easy to fix (updated driver did the job just fine).

            No touchscreen. Though I have a friend who upgraded his surface pro 3 to Windows 10 and found it a great experience! BTW greatly excited by universal App. And those store App on Windows 10, they look just like any other app! Which is so great! :D

                That's what I was thinking, but I updated all the Networking drivers and the one I needed, WiFi would not install. So I'm back looking up installation errors.

                  Why everyone one using Windows Ten already? and facing issues in installation and all? I mean it got released the day before yesterday, why don't you guys wait for some days, let some people use it, then ask about their experience of using Win10 and then install it if it gets good reviews. How about that? :-\ :laugh: ;P

                        The upgrade managed to lose my Nvidia graphics driver. The "update driver software" option detected the hardware, but timed out installing the drivers, so I had to manually download and install the drivers from the website. Office 2013 managed to forget its product key, so I had to type that in again. Otherwise, no problems to report.

                          Yeah, kinda small issues. The folks told me already about that video driver auto-update issue - manual download/installation is a quick fix. Best regards,

                              Sounds reasonable, but apparently some folks need to install it in order to write reviews :)

                                  Yes, I had the Cisco VPN v5 installed before the upgrade. I tried running the elevated command, but received the invalid syntax error. Thanks, I feel like I'm getting closer.

                                    Is the error on the reg delete or the netcfg line?

                                      Both work now. The netcfg line returns:

                                      failed. error code: 0x80004002

                                      .

                                        OK, try running sfc /scannow from an elevated prompt. http://www.troublefixers.org/windows/solution-for-internet-not-working-or-no-network-connectivity-windows-10/86/[^]

                                          Win10 upgrade damage control: so far lotsa folks reported issues w/video drivers (fixable), some others w/wifi drivers (ez fixable), but overall mood is rather positive. So, if anyone was "Gone with the Windows", i.e. got into the critical issues causing PC's fatal errors? Btw, I've also noticed that the digital-era "War of Roses" (i.e. Mac vs. PC) kinda intensified these days: here's a good ol' video joke in this regards: Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates | Epic Rap Battles of History[^] :-D ... Interestingly, the friend of mine with very long track record of Microsoft development recently posted about Win10 running smooth on Mac (in Parallels). Just couple words to add in this aspect: The personal experience with computer HW/SW could be very different from the institutional one. Statistically, running business on PCs is less expensive than on Macs. I've personally built several hundred PCs and can tell you that if it's done well in the first place, then it works for years. But, as a former electrical engineer, I also have a high appreciation for the quality of HW design and overall ergonomic sophistication of Apple's products. So, in one sentence, it's kinda a choice between "Lamborghini on the Desktop" and a regular workhorse like Toyota Camry, metaphorically speaking... :)

                                          Been using it for 4-5 months. Been very happy. Happier than windows 8.1 sometimes.
