Windows 10

Have installed this remotely while I am here in BD, if the AMD driver bug is still present when I get back home then I'll reinstall onto a fresh SSD and stick 8.1 on rather than the 7x64 that I started with, its still an upgrade from 7 at least, even if its not 10...
 
I've installed 10122, and almost everything works fine, but my CPU is stuck in down clocked mode. It won't go above 1.19ghz. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing it?

Is it not the power options? I know in Win 8.1 on high performance mode it would stick the cpu in 5% ultilisation, I usually change min and max to 100%

Yeah, unfortunately not, that was the first thing I checked. :(

Not tried the latest build but will check it, been running it in Hyper-V instead of a dual boot, will see what happens when I upgrade it to the latest.

You running it on a desktop or a laptop as wondering if its a laptop, is it the battery CPU limit that's in there?

This is on a desktop. I'm getting the feeling that it's just a bug that's cropped up from the install, that'll go away with a re-install. I'm being lazy and trying to avoid that though, as everything else seems to be working fine. :p

I'm definitely interested to hear how you get on.
 
Installed 10122. After it restarted it had removed my synaptics multi touch trackpad driver and replaced it with a standard mouse driver meaning I'd lost gesture features. It might have been because synaptics didn't digitally sign the drivers when they released them. I had to disable signing before I could install them in the first place.

Is anyone else finding that starting up is a bit slower? I'm seeing a lot of "Please wait" while logging in. Never saw that on the previous build

Me too. Are you noticing your CPU isn't clocking up too?

Did the update earlier today - I am not getting the please wait messages, but start-up does seem slower than the last build though.
 
Downloading it now, have they fixed the issue with the user folder having two folders of everything?

It happened even with a clean install of 10074. Very annoying issue that never happened on earlier builds. Deleting one folder broke the other so that Windows couldn't find it.

Update - I have just done the upgrade via Windows update, checked the user folder and all duplicated folders are now gone, seems they fixed that bug, thanks MS :D

I'll have a look next time I use it. I'm only running on a core2duo 2ghz laptop so not the most cutting edge machine anyway

I've sorted it, after spending close to 10 hours argoing and installing various builds of Windows 10, then back to 8, then 10 again I figured out what it was.

I've got an OC Panel connected to my motherboard that has a "slow" switch on it that forces it to run with the multi at 12x.

Someone in my house must have been messing with it, because I never mess with the switches under the cover, I didn't even realise there was a slow switch in there. :o

But I've got the latest build of 10 up and running now, and it seems to be fine. :D
