    What are you guys installing/running that makes Windows 10 unusable? I don't really have many problems with it.

            When you switched to Win 10: Did you just do the upgrade or did you follow it up with a clean install? I saw this on my grandson's laptop after the upgrade, but after a clean install it was good.

              Exactly, this is the Point!:thumbsup: Upgrade or clean install. If I compare this to my experience with my own apps, an upgrade is not always that easy... and with my apps it is only an app. Upgrading an OS: I do not have an idea, why people expect this should work smooth ;)

                      Make sure that the computer is not defective... What is ARC_SYSTEM? In my opinion most crash are either due to malfunctionning hardware or poorly written drivers.

                          It is important to do the upgrade first, then follow up with a clean install. When you upgrade your machine is registered with Microsoft as eligible for Win 10, and you won't need an expensive activation code later - during the clean install. Just skip the parts where a clean install asks for the activation code.

                              I agree with your arguments. But in this case I think it is an experienced user. I will also do this (need to do it because of company guidlines) upgrade to W10 in near future, one from W7 and one from W8.1, but I do not expect it goes smooth. More I expect that I need to go from scratch :(

                                I'm assuming that if I don't have to upgrade now I certainly won't have to once they start charging. Perhaps they'll even remove the optional update :D

                                      since the last update installation it doesnt boot smooth anymore, but nerving with it shiny new blue screen with the known errors as IRQ_LESS_OR_EQUAL, some ARC_SYSTEM ??? and other stuff. I got to reset the BIOS and boot 3 times and the PC freezes. Such shit I havent experienced since Vista Previews. :mad::mad::mad: Addition: I got the next BSOD with fvevol.sys PS: I run the PC three month with Windows 8 error free, and two month with Windows 10 (no new hardware)

                                      Have a look to this Statement from Cornelius Henning - Professional Profile - CodeProject[^] in The Lounge - CodeProject[^] it makes a lot of sense for me.

                                          since the last update installation it doesnt boot smooth anymore, but nerving with it shiny new blue screen with the known errors as IRQ_LESS_OR_EQUAL, some ARC_SYSTEM ??? and other stuff. I got to reset the BIOS and boot 3 times and the PC freezes. Such shit I havent experienced since Vista Previews. :mad::mad::mad: Addition: I got the next BSOD with fvevol.sys PS: I run the PC three month with Windows 8 error free, and two month with Windows 10 (no new hardware)

                                          Press F1 for help or google it. Greetings from Germany
