The new HP with Win7 Pro was purchased just for upcoming Windows 10. I have two other HP Pc's. One with XP Pro, and a HP with Win 7 Pro 32/64 bit.
In one email from Microsoft suggested I install the Windows 10 builds on a separate PC just in case there would be some crashes. I think Microsoft gave a fair warning to all for that reason.
They were doing that way back in the Windows 8 beta testing days. Those who didn't heed the warning, were soon to come on the old Windows 8 forum wanting to know how to get their Windows 7 back. Well, as MS had warned, there was NO return path.
Except, of course, to reinstall Windows 7 from scratch, or from a backup image file, which 99.99999% of people don't have.
I have two laptops here, just for OS testing. I test the X86 versions on an old Dell Laptop, and the X64 versions on a newer HP Laptop. But before I install a new OS version, I backup the existing version, just in case I have to go back.
Twice now, testing Windows 10, I've done a clean install and had problems with the OS, so another CLEAN install fixed it.
I'm thinking that the installer is in Beta too, and doesn't always get it right.
My main, desktop, PC is too valuable to me, to do any beta testing on it. That's my IBM (important business machine).
Y'all have a great day now!
