Clean install to a spare SSD from a Bootable thumb drive made from an MSDN ISO. I unplugged the SSD with 8.1 on it before installing 10. After booting into 10 with both drives plugged in my BIOS boot order got changed. I just had to go back in and redo the settings to get back into 8.1. The 10 SSD is blank now.
So the entire time the 8.1 ssd was on sata port 1 and the 10 ssd was on 2, correct ?
You never changed that, you just unplugged the 8.1 ssd right ?
No, I didn't mean you at all. Sorry if I gave that impression.
Some other people need to test their system before and again after a test upgrade.
If their system doesn't work even before they upgrade it is hardly going to suddenly start working after an upgrade. I've no idea why anyone would think this.
Others are complaining "Guest Additions" don't work and graphics are limited when no provider of VM's yet supports 10 as a guest.
For me 9926 works pretty well run native and pretty poorly (terribly slowly) in a VM. I'm going to let it run for a day or so - it could be indexes being built.
Graphics alas I'll be waiting a while for in both cases.
Yes the 8.1 SSD was on SATA 1, my WD Data drive is on SATA 2 and the 10 SSD that I added was on SATA 3. I just unplugged SATA 1 while installing Windows 10. Then I powered down and plugged it back in. On the next boot up it booted to 8.1. I got an repairing volume error message, once it got o 100% it booted into 8.1 with no issues. I did a few things and rebooted into 10, after that the default was 10. I noticed when I did a reboot and forgot to access my quick boot menu, it booted to 10 instead of 8.1.
nvidia comes out with a new driver every other week, so windows update is never gonna get the latest driver.
Even if you run windows update, it`s still gonna say you have the latest.
