    I did, running like a dream

    I had it running on a laptop and a few VM's prior but then made the decision to install it on my main machine, all 3 monitors working and i haven't hit a single bug based on what i have been doing so far :)

    If you have an external USB 3 HDD drive can you plug it in? Mine tries to attach through UAS and fails completely (but it did on 8 also). I think iomega isn't compatible with recent windows...

    I am dual-booting windows 10 and windows 8.1 and been using 10 as my main and 9926 was pretty stable. Moving to 10041, things seem worse. Even clean installed and it's still buggy. There may be something wrong with the display drivers on windows 10. I have 3 monitors. 2 hooked up to my gtx 980 and 1 hooked up to my motherboard. Worked fine and perfectly in windows 8 and never had a problem in build 9926. Upgraded to 10041 and had to swap cables and mess with the bios making integrated graphics a priority and then switching back to graphics card for the monitor (that's attached to mother) to work. It works for a good bit til I shut down my computer and then turn it back on and the monitor doesn't get detected, and I have to go back through the bios and do what I've said above. Also 2 games that crashes on windows 10: Rust and Heroes of the Storm. Overall 10041 seems to be going backwards in stability.

    @Burgurne did you decide to wait before you install Win10 TP?

    There is no right/wrong, I'm just curious :)

    I'm pretty sure it would work if I had it all connected to the GTX 980, but right now I don't have a display port adapter to connect the 3rd monitor to the card, so I'm connecting it to my motherboard. If I go into the Win 8.1 partition, it works fine.
