You don't get real idea of performance in a VM. I cannot try it as I'm of disk space. I'll need to replace Windows 8 to try that. I'll be getting a new hard disk so will try it in a few days though.

Similar case with me.

Windows 10 is not just a desktop operating system, but it will also be the successor to Microsoft's mobile operating system Windows Phone 8.1.

and xbox and windows RT etc
basically itll merge all their operating systems into one

Is anyone running the latest build 9926? Is it stable?

It's stable enough to use as primary os. I had issues with start menu but there was an update for that.

I've installed Windows 10 in my college lab's PC. Will be using it for a few days before installing in personal PC.

Installed Windows 10 at home PC today. Running fine. No driver issues. Only issue is that almost no antivirus is compatible. Only found Malwarebytes Anti Malware to be compatible,

Yup, But you can't use it.

 

[harshilsharma63]

Reverted back to Windows 8.1. Steam games keep on crashing. If anyone still has Windows 10 installed then please send me the default snow mountain wallpaper.

Yup, But you can't use it.

And why is that?

And why is that?

MS has restricted it till the official launch.

no games/driver optimisation to take advantage
you can still use benchmarking software though

yep me too
the reason ive held back from using windows 8.1 on my laptop is wifi issues so I stuck with the OEM windows 7 for now
Windows 10 will be free if you upgrade within a year apparently!!

I don't use benchmarks any more. They always show half the picture and the true performance can only be seen when using the device.
