Windows 10: Trouble upgrading to windows 10 from 8.1

I've been trying many times to upgrade to Windows 10 from 8.1 but every time I get to the phase where my computer restarts to apply the changes it will fail at around 3% and revert back to 8.1. There is an error message that it says I can search for but I haven't been able to write it down yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
