Hi folk,
I remember reading somewhere during the week from Microsoft that the
free offer upgrade will be extended for VI folk due to accessibility
issues which MS are addressing.
I don't use MS 10 so can't vouch for it's stability or otherwise but I
can try root out that link if anyone wants it from my Facebook group.
Best,
Tony Sweeney.

Hi PaulI did a quick google search and upgrading to windows looks doable but
tricky. I had a PC 3 years old running windows 8.1 and this was upgraded
automatically to windows 10. You too will need to upgrade to windows 7 first
and then to windows 10.Obviously check that the specs of the PC are
acceptable - that is you have the ram, at least 1 GB, sufficient memory drive
(32 GB) and a relatively fast motherboard. Also you need a usb to create a
bootable drive on that usb. The windows 7 can only be downloaded from third
party websites as Microsoft is no longer support windows 7. Without going
into details at this point you install the windows 7 files. Next you download
the media tools from Microsoft and use that to upgrade to Windows 10.Note
that your other softwares like outlook express and Microsoft Word may not be
supported with Windows 10. I need to check that out. I was able to use my
Microsoft Office 2007 when I upgraded to windows 10.Easier solution but you
pay for it could be t
o buy a new or second hand ( say a 3 or 4 year old) one already running
windows 8.1 and to transfer the old data to that. Upgrading to windows 10
would be automatic.
You are aware that time is running out for that free upgrade to windows 10 (
end of this month). Â
Hope this is helpful
Regards
John
