So far the 14279 seems to be running well considering the ut oh factor! Once it went on after a hard boot and roll back to fire up the updates again and watched as it downloaded a second time and and I was right there watching blast right past the 32% then 47% and came back in a bit to sign in and once back at the desk found everything but the sound card was set to go! The Entertainment Console Launcher for the older model PCIe Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio card was knocked out with the intial 10240 upgrade and clean install seeing the 8.1 update downloaded. This time however the support site had a 10 version you could look up while the 10 installer knocked out everything but the bare drivers!
Once I extracted the 1.5.1 that replaced the 1.5.0 SupportPack into a new sub folder I simply ran the main setup.exe and all went well. But that the first issue as far as the need to redo the sound card's drivers and app since the 10240 upgrade and then clean install last summer. The 10 installer simply grabbed the basic drivers only. The 8.1 update for the Audio Console Launcher saw that come up but missing half of the usual items like the speaker settings, EAX, Crystalizer, equalizer options.
As for feedback I could write a dossier on the progression through most of the builds that followed the 10240 having only missed the builds that came after the Threshold 2 update until the 14257 went on. So far other then the freeze during the first try which comes as no surprise actually since the last clean install was for the 10565! Everything else has been upgrade by updates one after the other in a consecutive manner.
