Windows 10 upgrade - how would this work?

[DrClout]

Well C, it killed my SteelSeries keyboard. I updated drivers, changed ports (I have 8 and 2 usb 3.0) and did a update rollback. Nothing. Rather pissed.

Test little beta testers, TEST!! I'm pretty much sure I won't be touching W10 with a 10 foot pole for 10 months.

So I tried to downgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 7 on a work computer I have at home, due to the fact that our company's VPN doesn't support Windows 10 yet (probably should have checked that before). It ended up hosing my computer to the point where it kept getting stuck on Windows load, even in safe mode....had to completely wipe and install OS from scratch.

Has anyone encountered their mouse sometimes not loading properly? I can't see my cursor and moving my mouse doesn't seem to work since whenever I click it's always the center of my screen. Reinstalling drivers didn't seem to help either.

EDIT: Changing ports on the back of my machine seemed to work. Maybe my mobo is crapping out.

On our laptop (test machine) my wife has reported the touchpad cursor having symptoms like that. She closes the top, forcing it to sleep, then reopens it and that seems to fix it. Anyway, just offering up it might not be your hardware.

I imagine more of a house that is built with tempered glass and anyone that walks by can just look in if they want, but there is the option to lower the curtans slightly so only ankles can be seen if you have the pro edition.

I was playing FF4 via steam on my tablet when I got alt tabbed and it googled "Ben" I'm not sure what is happening.

Either a virus/malware or your Pc has been possessed

Ok so my new Samsung 850 500GB has arrived. I currently have Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 installed on my Samsung 840 250GB. Iv formated the new 500GB SSD and installed W7 on there. I havnt done any drivers / updates / anything so far.

Ideally I want to do a fresh install of W10 and none of this upgrade shit. I also have a 2TB WD Black Data drive that My Documents and some other Applications are installed. That drive is mapped as D. If i understand it correctly I have to do an upgrade from W7 > W10 in order for my W7 Key to move over to W10? Once that is done I can reformat the drives, reinstall W10 fresh and it should recognise my system as registered cause of the previous W7>W10 upgrade?

Does this sound correct?

If so do I have to do the upgrade on the new W7 install on the Samsung 850 HD or can i just do the upgrade path on my already patched and updated W7 install on the Samsung 840 then just do a fresh W10 install on the New Samsung 850?

It shouldn't matter on which drive you do the upgrade, AFAIK the W10 activation "remembers" your hardware setup. You might just unplug the other SSD before installing fresh so the bootloader lands on the right drive.

Perfect thanks...

just upgrade to w10 and how do you disable the robot voice that vocally says everything you scroll over and do... holy shit its annoying

nvm... it was the narrator.... w/e thought that was a good idea shoud be shot, burned, stabbed, eaten by a dog, and everyhhing else foul before thrown in the ocean

[Niya]

Um... the narrator function was already present in earlier win versions and is AFAIK for visually impaired users that need help recognizing stuff.

[Boyiee]

Yeah it's definitely not on by default either.
