    A few upgrade questions


    I will be upgrading from 64-bit W8.1 Pro to 64-bit W10 Pro in the near
    future. A few questions:-

    1) I run 64-bit W8.1 Pro on a ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe motherboard. I dont have
    a graphics nor sound card since I use the on-board graphics and audio functions
    on the board. This works very well for me at the moment. Might there be any
    issues with this set-up when I upgrade to W10 Pro?

    2) W8.1 is installed on a 128GB SSD in UEFI mode with secure boot and fast
    boot enabled. Might there be any issues with this set-up when I upgrade to W10
    Pro? All my data resides on separate HDDs and a RAID Array.

    3) Do I need to disable my Anti Virus system (Norton version
    22.5.2.15) before I upgrade to W10?

    4) On my C drive I have, as usual, two folders: Program Files and Program
    Files (x86). I have a mixture of 32-bit and 64-bit applications. Will the
    upgrade to W10 preserve all my applications or might the 32-bit ones be deleted?


    Many thanks for any enlightenment.

    :)

  3. N96 Firmware upgrade a few questions

    If ain't broke don't fix it! Anyway if you are those that always wanted the latest fw version do so. The only thing that I know of that version is only about improvement in live TV reception.
