    Does anyone know if they fixed the multi-screen issues. I game with three monitors and I tried out the insider preview last week. I could not for the life of me get Eyefinity up and running so I reverted back to Win7.
    Hoping the issues will be resolved if not already.

    They kept mostly the same I guess. My desktop and wallpaper have changed during the preview builds so I don't know what they look like before.

    My games are in tact but the games I play have a cloud backup solution so even if deleted, I was not affected. The only exception was Osu! which was installed to a secondary drive about 3-5 years ago and has hilariously survived numerous clean installs and upgrades completely in tact.

    Thanks but I guess I'll have to do some experiments on other workstation.
    Will report here as soon as my download will be available.

    Worse than data logging...

    A major problem with Win 10 and wifi. They may share your wifi password.

    I use nvidia and it took me about 2 hours of fighting before I finally came across the answer. I had to download beta drivers (from nvidia). When I got gforce experience working properly (before windows could update my drivers again *sigh*) I had it check for newer drivers and since then everything has been working properly with multi-screen.
    With ATI I would assume that there are probably beta drivers you just haven't used yet (only speculating as I haven't used an ATI card in many years).

    Yeah I had the W10 driver from AMD(15.7) but I still couldn't get it running. They have since released 15.7.1 so maybe they fixed it. For now though, since we have a year to upgrade, I will just stay on Win 7 and keep happily gaming

    I figure they(both companies) will get the surround screen/driver issues sorted out b4 too long.

    So far I have Windows 10 on both laptop and desktop, and I am loving it. Sure, I do have a few complaints but the only real one worth mentioning is the start menu. Would it have killed Microsoft to allow us to create custom folders under the full apps list, just like in Windows 7? I hate having to scroll from A to Z just to find a single program. Sure, many of you are asking why don't I just pin items to the start screen, but for me certain shortcuts that are URLs like Steam games, it won't allow me to pin those. Other than that no real gripes from me.

    Here is a little guide to do a clean install using the upgrade: Link

    Disclaimer: it's not a true clean install but a nice workaround to the activation issues.
