Apparently Microsoft are about to start charge 7 dollars a month for businesses to use windows 10....Hope they aren't idiot enough to do it to consumers |

That will never happen. If anything windows will be free not to distant future, they can't keep expecting users to pay for their bloated OS

Go ahead and download Windows 10 plus the app that allows you to burn an install CD or DVD. They have already released several major updates that makes the GUI easier to use. One hint, a lot of the problems people have with Windows 10 is because it was in tablet mode instead of desktop mode. |

You have plenty of room to download it. I don't think it is more than 4.5 gigabytes, probably half as much. BTW. After installing you'll have to download all the updates and probably the service packs. Depending on your internet speed, that could occupy several frustrating hours. Yep, you still have to restart your PC after downloading most updates. |

I just installed Windows 10 on another partition initially. Best off downloading it and installing win 10 fresh and not actually upgrading and existing installation.

That's how I installed Windows 10 when it was first released, I didn't have any driver issues either. That really surprised me because I only have a laptop. |

@ spartan2 - 18.07.16 - 10:24pm I just installed Windows 10 on another partition initially. Best off downloading it and installing win 10 fresh and not actually upgrading and existing installation. Im kind of a noob when it comes to that as all 3 of my pcs i had, i never changed the os on any of them, 98se on first piece of crap i had, then xp on second pc, and 7 on current one. But this one i got just win 7 and few other things on my c drive. steam and all other games, music, movies etc are all on my other drives. Where as the first pcs i had only ever had the one hdd in them with everything on them. So on this pc it should be a bit safer to upgrade. ill have to look up some how to sites on best way to go about doing this. usually i never upgrade anything unless something isnt working except for antivirus, and the updates that are forced upon me. Which leads to my question, are the gpu drivers forced updates now? Ive heard both yes and some say no, i usually like to wait a bit on them. |

Im using my cell to get my pc online...so it'll probably be a frustrating day instead of hours. |
