Hi,

 

Microsoft is nagging me to upgrade to Win 10.

 

Does HP have the drivers to support this on my 6 year old machine?

 

Thanks!

I have certainly had Windows 10 install very successfully on much lesser hardware but you know it is your call. The problem is it is harder to get the upgrade reminder to stfu than it is to just bite the bullet and install Windows 10. Some people love it some people hate it and eveybody has an opinion, kind of like Trump.

The drivers will just install. Your video card is fully supported..nVidia Geforce 230M

OK great.

 

Do you think it should be a relatively successful upgrade for such an old machine or is it a case of 'YMMV'? 😉 

 

Thank you!

Ha ha! Thank you Huffer.

 

I shall consult on Wn 10 experiences amongst my acqaintances.

 

I have used the laptop successfully for music production - mind you the machine is getting a bit long in the tooth now.

 

Cheers
