Just checked my laptop that is on 24/7 and the W10 is already downloaded, waiting there like a Trojan for a signal from the HQ

Try going to the control panel and selecting check for updates, that seemed to start mine off.

Wonder if anyone is going to play classic games such as Roller Coaster Tycoon on Windows 10 for a laugh?

Just a good old nag here:
Make sure you do a full system image backup before you do the upgrade in case it all goes pearshaped. Also make sure you know your current install code (less important for windows 8.1 but still advisable in case things really go pearshaped). |

So now I left my other laptop on and a Surface 3 pro, the laptop has already finished downloading, the Surface is just starting. Looks like there's a lot of traffic today on MS servers.

Out of interest, how can you install to a blank disk without an iso or install code?

.....So do you enable this "Aero Glass" for Windows 10 as solid colours on all windows look a bit amateurish. I want transparency like Windows 7.

Is Windows 10 being released midnight local time to each region, or is it locked to midnight ET US time?
I bet these servers are going to be hit hard anyway over the coming days. Good times! |
