Bro or is., my sys is 64bt and i instaled 64bt software
ITbomb:

If your system is 64bit are you sure you install the 64 bit OS? 32 bit OS may have issues going beyond 4 gb

Pls work me thru the AMD tingy update. I just upgraded n now my ba3 discharges like mad plus screen brightness won't go dim no matter what. How do I get the control Centre thing. Thanks.


first i downloaded driver talent that helps one download and identify missing drivers on Ur system. It works online so u will need to be connected. Just scan when Ur online and it will show u the missing drivers. AMD was missing in mine and I downloaded it. Then I added the driver manually from my computer after downloading.

After going through the thread on the Windows free upgrade deadline, I saw many complaints from people who installed the Windows and the others who were still skeptical.

To be honest, Windows 10 is the best Windows experience once everything has been set up and running

Let’s get straight to the issues.

First of all, you need to know basic information about your system.
Press Win+R and type in msinfo32 to launch the System information console and look for these items
a. Manufacturer
b. Model Number
c. Architecture ( 64 bit or 32 bit/86x) very important
d. RAM

These are the most important, other information are there

1. Download size and options

Yes, the download size is about 3.5 GB to get Windows 10 on your PC. Other additional installations/driver updates might take another 1 GB

Note: if you are upgrading from the Microsoft tool, make sure you have enough data (>4 GB) and a strong network otherwise any network interruption, even at 90%, you start afresh

Solution: Download a good Windows 10 ISO file with any Download Manager (which you can pause and resume at will), click here for the link or buy a DVD from a computer shop.

Why installing Windows 10 when 2019 is closed by when Microsoft will release another stable version.

When MS release Vista many people think it will be stronger and better than Longhorn and XP, but its a woe until 3 years later Win7 fix earlier mistakes. In my Opinion Microsoft is yet to get it straight am waiting for he Next Windows higher than 10.

after the 29th of July you will have to pay for windows 10

2. Display issues after installation

80% of the time, this is a common issue, icons becoming larger and funny looking

Solution:
Go to Device Manager (Shortcut: Win+R, then type devmgmt.msc in the RUN box and press enter or OK). Look for Display Adapter (probably with a yellow alert sign), right click on it and select “Update Driver”.
Then choose “Allow Windows to search for drivers automatically”. Make sure you are connected to the internet and wait for it to do its work.


3. WiFi not working

Same as above, still on the Device Manager, look for “Network Controller” (especially if it has a yellow alert icon) and update the drivers.

For some brands of PC, Windows might not be able to connect to the respective manufacturer’s site so you have to do it manually.
For HP users, just go to http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/ and search for your system model


Driver can't be updated

Re: Common Issues After Installing Windows 10 And Solutions by ITbomb(m): 9:27am On Jul 28, 2016

Driver can't be updated

You may have to download the driver manually, since you already know the name (Ralink), just go to the your system manufacturer site eg hp etc and search for it for your computer model

Got this from HP site: "HP does not provide Windows 10 drivers on HP.com for HP computers sold prior to August 2013. Microsoft has made most of the component drivers for these products available via Device Manager once the product is running Windows 10 with an active Internet connection. To see if your HP computer was tested to work in Windows 10, go to Upgrade to Windows 10 (in English)."

You may need to roll back and wait till whenever you get a new PC, but that is strange cos I did a system upgrade for a pc bought in 2010.

Before you roll back, if you have up to 1 gb data, run Windows update. If windows doesn't see any driver from HP, it will look for the best match from the generic drivers

Windows 10 is no longer free to upgrade as of 29th July. I've used Windows 10 since release and most bugs have be sorted. You can choose to defer updates and download and install at will.
