Sony Vaio update to Windows 10

Hi everyone I bought a Vaio Pro 11 in 2011 with preloaded Windows 8.

Unfortunately after all the waiting Sony is not supporting Windows 10 update for my laptop (I've checked Sony's website and my model is not included on the list).

So my question is, can I still update to Windows 10 without Sony supporting? What could be potential problems I might have?

 

Windows 10 Driver Updates for Sony VAIO Still Nowhere to Be Found


For my case (Sony VAIO Tap 11)... it is there in the list of models.

... but it turns out i don't need that upgrade 'driver' anyway. The special 'upgrade' mode did nothing to my machine prior to the actual upgrade, and after completing the upgrade it merely installed one single update (to Sony Control Center I believe) that can be downloaded anyway from Sony's website. Working like a charm now running on Win10 (except for a few Intel display driver problems which are not specific to VAIO the way I understand it)

 

Windows 10 for Sony Vaio

I have reserved Windows 10 for my Sony Vaio laptop running Windows 8.1. I understand that after 29 July it will download to my machine and I will be given the option to upgrade immediately or do so at a later date.

I have today received a notification from Sony advising me not to upgrade to Windows 10 until the drivers are ready as below

Microsoft is offering a free upgrade* to Windows 10.

• The offer applies for qualified Windows devices which are upgraded during the first year*.
• Sony will not be providing support for all models that qualify for this upgrade.

Get the offer details from Microsoft*.

Although Microsoft is offering the Windows 10 upgrade, it is strongly recommended that you wait to install it until the drivers & installation instructions are available for your VAIO PC.

My question is do I need to cancel my reservation for Windows 10 completely. Or do I allow it to download in the background and wait until instructed to install it by Sony?

Thanks
