Use Disk Clean-up click install drive, once scanned, hit the System button on it, it will rescan, then select ALL options, and clean, will remove all trace. Remember though if you do that, you will not be able to roll-back the update

If anyone has a Creative X-Fi based card and you don't have any sound after installing Windows 10, download this driver:
http://forums.creative.com/showthread.php?t=720562
After installing that driver and restarting Windows go to device manager>sound,video and game controllers, then disable and re-enable Creative SB X-Fi. You may also need to disable automatic driver updates so Windows doesn't try to download the older Creative driver.

I already had to reset the full installation anyway since Eset Smart Security was bluescreening on startup and removing it in safe-mode caused LOTS of other shit to fail after reboot...
So no way going back now anymore anyway

Use ESET Smart Security V9 Beta, older versions do not work on Win10, HIPS will be disabled.
You get 3 free months with the Beta

I use Eset SS as well.

not touching this train wreck until there's a significant incentive to even consider it, like a big DX12 game for example.

You can return back to this exact state in a snap by just restoring that image. Then you have nothing to worry about trying Win10. |
What about the boot manager that has Windows XP on my backup HDD (for ol' games too) ?.. I'd prefer a clean install than maybe a corrupted boot manager etc...
In the past i had the prob where i had Windows 7 and XP. 7 in SSD, XP in an HDD. Tried formatting the SSD to install W8.1 and didn't liked it, and whenever i've installed W7, the boot manager for W8 was there, not letting me go. Somehow, however, i managed to get W7 running again and fixed the boot manager thing.

I don't know why so many of you are having so many issues. I upgraded this morning (via the ISO), not a single issue.
Later today I did a clean install off the ISO (not because I had to, because I wanted to, since I've accumulated some silly bits of software in the last couple of years), it activated just fine. All drivers work, including the Nvidia ones (downloaded off the site just like usual). MSI even have all the Win10 drivers available already (Z87-GD65). My X-Fi worked fine as well, even before I installed the driver pack in Randir's link.
YMMV but for me this is the same as 7, 8 and 8.1: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I hardly am. This is the first time in close to a year that the Nvidia driver hasn't been a pain in the ass, QA on that is terrible lately. Will see later whether it actually works in games, but so far so good.
I don't have a lot of crap on my PC though, the format was only to satisfy my OCD

The fact that they still ask money for this "service" shows how they really mock their consumers. But since everyone (including me) is going to need their trojan horse to be "up to date" and shit, they can do whatever they want. Lets hope legislations can solve this one.
I'm glad we will have the necessary hacks to prevent the worst.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
