oooh. sadly mine is come wit Windows 7, so i just try with virtual box first, will wait for next year release then upgrade.

After asking around, gonna delete my recovery partition, and re-install fresh instead and build up from there then make a acronis back up

well you should grab the w8 pro upgrade for MYR 50.00 when it was offered. from there I upgraded to w8.1 pro for free.

haha I never had a chance to use that recovery partition. I have stock recovery image created, but never used it also.

for recovery system images, I always use windows built-in system image tool. I do a fresh install first, install drivers, then make a clean full system image (using wbadmin via powershell). after that, I install software and do windows updates. I always make a new system image whenever I make significant changes to the system. this way, you save a lot of time starting over from scratch. it's very handy

back to the w10 topic, dot net 3.5 installed fine this time. finally I can run steelseries engine 2.0 properly

oh the .net is not included in the build?

like w8.x, 3.5 in w10 is not enabled by default. I tested previous tech previews by installing the feature via programs and features but failed. maybe by that time the website for serving w10-specific updates was not ready yet.

now everything is working

need help～
after i update to window 10 from window 7, the wifi signal still on and it still can connect to unifi. But duno why i can't online although it show network connected....>.<

did you reinstall the drivers? here everything is ok fine.

wait what you mean by upgrade? not fresh install?

Most likely he updated it from Win 7 to Win 10, which is what I did on my laptop (seamless). So far, no driver problems although some apps are "buggy".

this makes sense. for some unknown reasons, the upgrades will screw something in the process. if you have the install media, it's better just do a clean install.

alternatively, just create and use virtual machines for testing purposes. it's much more convenient and flexible.

Ya,as the other said, i upgrade from window 7 to window 10 technical preview, but seem last night i try many time still can't online then i make it back to window 7, lol

ok haha

for some windows upgrade from 7 to 8 is fine. for others, it have issues now and then. previously this was the official way for people to upgrade (install 7 then upgrade to 8), before MS decided to give us the install media. if you wanna have something that are close to trouble-free, it's better to do a fresh install

the better option is still to run it as virtual machine. note that there is a keylogging feature in w10 tech previews. you don't wanna run it for production.

Any problem using Windows10 Technical Preview?

Many bugs as current latest update?

I thought about using it as daily usage since several builds earlier ago but still, things aren't really stable enough to do so. I had connectivity issue, graphic driver issue, and more importantly networking softwares not working perfectly. I'm using stuff like Proxifier which completely ruin the screen (heavy flickering / blank out) while trying to do certain action which is pretty much the biggest problem that make me stay away for now. If you just doing other stuff, should be just fine. But still, I hearing cases of people's HDD got completely broken.... something scary like that... hah.

Actually, I think the interface somehow just got worst for the latest build! Surprise! Even juts a few pixel shifts or slight color change can ruin everything.

Do we know if the update to win 10 will be free for win 8.1 users?

Edit : Nevermind, found the answer one page back ha :-

Zzz netflix via web browser does not work . Had to use metro app

Discovered bug in login screen.

If you have multiple user account and set one of them as autologin (using netplwiz),
the login screen will show user account picture duplicates.

Did you highlight this issue to Microsoft?

ya. Just report it on feedback routine.

😀 cool

Tried out the preview.. Not bad.. Might jump ship from 7 to 9... ops I mean 10..
I just hope no compatibility problems for my apps and games though.

Hi,
Has anyone tested it with a touch screen monitor (PC) ? How is compatibility like?
