Problem :
The update centre which shows the update history is not good .. Installed update and failed updates should have been grouped and instead they've just displayed the information in an confusing manner..
The startup time ( from the moment I press the power button to the moment when the desktop is launched[including password entering screen]) is higher..more than a minute.
Improved :
Microsoft edge..have been using this more than chrome so far..the ram usage is much lower than chrome..is there any way to transfer all my settings/passwords/bookmarks from chrome to edge??
Gaming : so far, I've tested only Dragonball xenoverse on full settings and it works flawlessly.. Much much better than windows8.1... Gaming seems tone promising..will test more and post results..
How much time is it taking for you guys for Windows 10 to load up ? I'll post my time ( with and without password) in a bit..I tested this on my age old amd x2 4400+/2GB DDR2/9500GT 512mb
and win10 loads super fast but Edge crawls on more than one tab.
ram usage at idle is 800Mb
I played only rocksmith2014 on it and as far as FPS goes, it was same as win 8.1 but the game had internal failures
Games are supposed to run better on it but compatibility mode of win7 did not work on it.
I installed win 7 again on this PC.

I'll post the fps as well..but its definitely better than 8.1 as dbz xenoverse clearly stuttered in win8.1( whats weird is it had no stuttering problem in win8 )
Just realised Microsoft edge doesn't support add-ons...will post the ram usage as well.

edge is still in its infancy.
you are better off with firefox or chrome.
although edge has the same features (read most) it cannot import stuff like password and bookmarks from another browser.

Ok guys so here's the deal
After having exhausted almost 3/4th of my monthly bandwidth trying out different versions of windows i finally managed to get a win 8 iso (from a russian forum) that installs fine and recognizes my laptop's inbuilt OEM license key.I have now upgraded to 8.1 and windows is activated
A few queries though
-Which version of windows 10 should i download?I am currently on 8.1 core single language.I am assuming that if i get the wrong iso it might not get activated like was happening with me on 8
-Is there an 'all in one' kind of iso which will automatically upgrade mine to a compatible version ?If so where to get such an iso ?
Ya. Heard some drivers for old components are not updating. Also the part i hate in Windows update, is lack of progress bar for each individual update, rather than giving as a whole.Better if he download manually. Automatic update is not good.
Bump..
