Windows 10

So I took the plunge and upgraded from W7 to 10. I had to reinstall W7 a few weeks ago after it corrupted and I hadn't got around to reinstalling all the various programs. Upgrading now, while the PC was in a fairly bare state and with all my important stuff backed-up, seemed as good a time as any

Hey MG! Hope you're doing okay. :)

Touch wood, I have had no compatibility problems with any games or software and it'll stay that way. I read where a couple of people said they experienced problems, but they were resolved by simply doing a hard reset. The old turning off and on again trick. :)

There's a growing list of W10 compatible games created by Steam users here: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3289280
It's far from comprehensive but it should give you an idea of what's what. Interesting to see Arkham Knight is one of three games listed as crashing. The publishers pulled the PC version from sale a few days after release because it was so badly optimised (it would hardly run on the most powerful rigs) and it still hasn't been re-released.

I git the free upgrade from 8.1 to 10 on my laptop. It seems okay so far, but I haven't upgraded my PC, in case it all goes horribly wrong later :)

That's probably a good strategy. There's a lot to be said for waiting until any bugs have been patched out. I've installed 10 on my desktop and laptop now and (so far) I haven't come across any 10-related problems.
