    installing windows 10 to replace windows 8.1


    Hi I am getting the following message screen shot below when trying to install Windows 10 on PC running Windows 8.1. However, I do not see this program in the program list. I already removed VMware using its installation/uninstall wizard.


    Appreciate if someone could provide detailed instructions on how to resolve this issue.

    Thanks.

    :)

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    installing windows 10 to replace windows 8.1

    Installing windows off of a USB stick

    Step By Step from vista:
    From admin cmd prompt

    1. diskpart
    1a. list disk
    2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

    xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

    And that's it, boot off your usb disk
