    Problems upgrading from 8.1 to 10.


    Split from this thread.​


    Hi

    I encounter the same issue when trying to upgrade a PC from W8.1 to W10, blocked since 24h running in "getting updates" (obtention des mises à jour, in french)


    PC is a ACER E5-771G, i checked, it can be migrated to W10, 4GB ram


    why is it so long, seems to be looping ?


    I have checked CPU usage, 26% for windows tasks. I let it run, but i would like to know if there is an issue known ?


    I am using "mdiea creation tool 1903". Is it the appropriate tool ?

    do you have another link, more robust to migrate to W10 ?


    I am french and it is the PC of my brotheer in law, i am on holidays at his home for few days, please advise


    Jean louis

    Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


    That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
    a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
    b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

    I suggest Option 1 is easier.

    If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. 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 .

  4. Problems upgrading from 8.1 to 10.

    Video card or RAM need upgrading?

    Memtest: no errors after 10 hrs.
    I'm going to perform the Primetest, later on. Get back to you on that.
    I'm going to take it step by step, guys. I need to find the problem with this current computer. I might have to upgrade some components, so that it is still runnable. As for the new one, yes....i will build on it later. I need to find something decent 'gaming experience', all suggestions appreciated. THanks.
