Today we did some Windows 10 upgrades. Two Windows 7 Ultimate systems with older 'not compatible' video cards and one running Windows 8.1. Upgrade process finished after about an hour for each. Of course the standard video driver and resolution was horrible on older hardware.
For the Nvidia 7300/7200 system just download the Windows 7 64bit driver and everything worked perfectly. Intel DG33FB using E8500 processor.
For the ATI Radeon X1550 system just downloaded the Vista 64bit driver and ran under compatibilty mode and everything worked perfectly. Intel DQ35MP using Q9400 processor.
One system was using the Microsoft Wireless Keyboard/Mouse 700 receiver and of course that didn't come up properly after the upgrade. Had to manually change the USB driver to 'USB Composite Device' instead of 'Microsoft Wireless 700 Receiver'. Odd, but works.
For the Windows 8.1 system, upgrade was effortless and had to do nothing special. Intel DG33FB using E8600 processor.
All systems had AVG Internet Security 2015 installed and only need to reboot after the installation finished to restart the firewall.
Impressed with Windows 10 so far.
