The Vista drivers should also work in Windows 10 (same architecture 32/64), assuming you can install Windows 10 at least 32-bit. I have seen some old AMD 64 machines that can handle up to Windows 7 64-bit but not Windows 10 64-bit because they lack the required instructions (CMPXCHG8B and CMPXCHG16B). In that case you either let them with Windows 7 64-bit or install Windows 10 32-bit instead. I also have seen some weird cases with AMD 64 machines that cannot install Windows 10 64-bit directly (they never pass through the OOBE, they get stuck at some point). The workaround is to install Windows 7 64-bit first and then upgrade to 10 64-bit. This way the user is already created and OOBE only goes through the Windows 10 final configuration without getting stuck. I do not know why this happens.
