I agree, I used one with my desktop w8 computers. I do not see the need with 10. Its different still, but I think its well done.
I was still having problems so I went back to http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 to download the media creation tool. Unlike what many of the instructions I'm seeing around the Net say about doing the clean install (including the Lifehacker one linked above), I told it that I was upgrading this PC instead of "Create installation media for another PC" (which I tried before and couldn't because I didn't have a large enough flash memory device). From there I was able to select the option to overwrite everything (personal data, apps and settings).
I did it early Wed am on my xps laptop from 8.1 and my son did it on his alienware from 7.
The first thing that happened on the update app was it checked our computers for compatability. It gave us a list of everything it checked. In my case everything was ok and all of my programs work fine including an odd blood glucose program for importing readings. Neither of us had any issues. Neither of us noticed a slowdown of any kind. Make sure you make the 8 changes cnet suggests asap. Especially the update and syncing changes.
My son uses his laptop for some gaming and is waiting to do his desktop gaming rig for the time being.

After the Windows 10 installation was over I noticed mt Norton Ant-Virus icon was missing from my desktop. I've tried three time to reinstall Norton and I keep getting errors and Norton will not install. Anyone else having this issue?
Mine asked me if I wanted to upgrade this morning so I said yes.
For some reason it did not setup my video card properly so only one out of 3 monitors worked.
So I was searching on my laptop for a solution to this when a message appeared on the screen telling me my video card was updated and if I wanted to restart. Now all 3 monitors are working fine.
In my device manager I have about 12 "UNKNOWN DEVICE" listed under Multifunction Adapters. I have no idea what those are. So far everything else is working fine, but it feels a little slower than before.
I am also trying to figure out how to use my mic that is on my Logitech Webcam to work with Cortina.

Do you happen to have an Nvidia GPU? I got a notice this morning that there was a new Nvidia driver update specifically for Windows 10 and DirectX 12 support. I haven't actually upgraded to Windows 10 yet but I do have the new drivers ready to go.
Tapatalk on PC? I didn't even know that existed. Why not just use a web browser when you are on your computer? In fact, I use the browser on my iPad and iPhone instead of Tapatalk now too. The mobile version of the site is pretty good since the switch to XenForo.
your better off, norton av is a virus itself, use ms security essentials and either firefox or chrome and your pretty good to go
havent had an issue in over 10 years doing this

i would look for new chipset drivers for the mobo
Yeah, it was a 'modern' app and originally worked quite well. The newest version not so good. But all versions crashed on W10. I liked and used it until they upgraded it.
Got it installed on my venue 8 pro now, and surprisingly its smoother than on my work Pc. Much better than the div edition I tried.
Venue 8 pro is next up after I finish yardwork. Others were all done and working fine last night. Will have to look at my dad's this weekend and the 2 I have at remote office.
