Nothing! I said nothing!
Was already googling forcing the update when I noticed it had started itself. Yay, I'm never this lucky.

In Batman Arkham Knight I stay at a solid 30 with 2 970s on Windows 10. On Windows 8 I dipped down to 21 or lower.
I don't know the reason for this.

Does that force the install or just the download?
To those of you who did the "dirty" (non-clean install) upgrade route:
1. What was your prior operating system? (Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1)
2. Do all of your old games and programs still work, or did you find the need to reinstall them?
3. Have you run into any incompatibility issues so far?

I'm afraid the creation tool doesn't recognize my SanDisk USB.
Using this one here:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DZPUOUI/?tag=neogaf0e-20
I found another USB stick that had just enough to fit W10 on it but my mobo/bios would not show it in the menu. I tried USB 3.0 and others and still nothing. Does the USB need to be FAT32 or NTFS? I was using FAT32.

You have to wonder if that really will be the case though when there's W8.1 vs W10 benchmarks like this:

Better performance on an AMD GPU in Project Cars with the only difference being the OS. I think the Battlefield 4 beta (at least) had a similar thing going from W7 to W8.

Same here!
If anyone has Firefox and Edge on W10, can anyone tell me if Firefox shows up as an option to import favourites from into Edge? Only IE is an option, Firefox doesnt show as one.
Can't see anyone who has a similar problem online. Hope it's not just me...somehow.
1. Windows 8.1
2. Not had a chance to test them all, but Steam, Geforce experience (worked after a restart), Skype, Firefox, Dropbox all worked at least. Not had a chance to try a game sadly.
3. Only the 980Ti after it first booted up, but after a restart it worked again. Seemed it was like the driver installed only fully after a reboot after first boot.

W10 insists on installing RealTek audio drivers even after I uninstall them.
Had you done any layout customization before the upgrade?
I'm wondering if stuff I've done like Windows XP-style taskbar (similar windows don't group together), or an added Quick Launch toolbar will work in Windows 10.

Mine actually runs better....but then again I also just upgraded to 1.07 so maybe its that.
But working perfectly under Windows 10, running borderless window.
1. Windows 7 Pro.
2. So far every game ive tested works cept for Geometry War 3 which was running at 12fps, could need an update or my drivers are just fucking around
3. As I said so far only Geometry Wars 3 has given me any sort of issues, all my other programs run no worries. All my daily apps run perfectly. No discernible difference in performance for me
My USB 3 sandisk extreme was the same. Didn't recognise it. Using a spare USB key I had lying around that seems to work. I think when you plug the Extreme 3 in, it doesn't appear as a removable drive - just a full normal drive, so it probably isn't detected by the tool.

Where does the reset option offer a clean install?

I'm fairly Certain Direct X12 is supposed to be an improvement for SLI. So it does make sense. What doesn't make sense is how he's only getting 30 fps with 970's SLI
Oh god I hope they didn't ruin SLI, have anyone tried it out on other systems yet?

uhhh, is that supposed to come up when you post on edge?
Just did a very quick run with Witcher 3. Didn't notice any difference on SLI Titan X. I didn't notice in Nvidia Control Panel it says "SLI profile was changed", "needs to be refreshed" and applied.
On my problem, anyone got the Weather app to work? Even after App Store updates, any city I type it no results.
For me it was massive. The upgrade was slightly sluggish, and some things didn't work at all. But fresh install was much better. You really got to do it fresh after upgrade.
How do you even snap in tablet mode anyway?Snap got a serious downgradeI don't like how it works now, at least in tablet mode. You can't easily change out one half of your snapped apps, you basically have to resnap every time you want to change one of them.
So I can't, say, keep twitter snapped and switch the other half between other things at will, I have to resnap every time I want to change one of the apps. Not cool.
edit: Also, a small annoyance, but it seems like the background for my login screen is just the default wallpaper, and I can't find a way to change it. Anyone else getting this?
Edit.. Got it
Works for me. Don't know, reboot?
You'll have to do the reddit trick
https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/3exx29/preload_windows_10_if_you_dont_have_the_folder/
Make sure you read the first comment. You have to delete some files. Worked for me and fixed that error.
I am having the same problem but I found this. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-update-error-80246007#1TC=windows-7
Still preparing for install Ill let you know if it worked. Worth a shot at least. I just ran the windows update troubleshooter btw.
Edit. I have already done the Reddit trick, but I still got that error. Hopefully this does the trick.
Edit 2. Nope same thing. Oh well.
guys remember you can Always download the iso, burn it and upgrade yourself
Most of the install went fine but now I've been stuck on this screen for the last 40 minutes.
Is that normal?
Looks like it's hanging. Is there any hard drive activity?

Is this an ISO or suitable for in-place upgrade: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 ?
