Upgrading 8.1 --> 10 - drivers?
Hey gang,
So after holding off for a while, I am getting closer to taking advantage of the free upgrade offer for Windows 10.
I would prefer to go through the upgrade process, rather than a clean install. I rather do clean installs when I really need to, like changing out for a new motherboard. Just don't want to go through the hassle until absolutely necessary.
I build all my own systems, and keep them pretty current regarding hardware and drivers.
The Windows 10 upgrade advisor tells me my system is ready and should be no conflicts with the upgrade, for my hardware and software.
Knowing that for some hardware the vendors supply separate drivers for 10 versus 8, my question is: Should I uninstall my drivers for say my video card, sound card, printer prior to doing the upgrade, or will the upgrade process to Windows 10 pretty much take care of that for me? Obviously once installed I will grab the latest Windows 10 drivers and install them...
Just trying to prepare as best I can for when I do decide to take the plunge.
Thanks for any tips,
