Without a mainboard update available from te ASSus website would this be a problem switching to Windows 10 as nothing is mentioned on the Download page about drivers.? Will Win 10 update some of my drivers automatically?(y)

Without win 10 drivers we may have to use either some windows drivers or some 8.1 drivers.Originally posted by PETEF
Remember this is a new drive you will still have the win 7 fall back.
Just remember- Win 7 product key
- Power off earth yourself and disconnect current drive
- Watch the video I posted a link to
- If in doubt ASK

Further investigation on YT there are so many suggested fixes for this issue including editing the registry etc. Not sure what applies in my case
have I tried a few basic fixes time date/time settings etc none worked checked for Win 7 updates but I feel that I may need a Microsoft patch file to make it load and useable.Comment

Do you have a separate system to create the Install Media on?Comment

Hi Rusty Thanks for your replies. I have sorted the issue after a few hours of research on YT and used the Microsoft easy fix tool to sort the registry though it was hard to find a download link as no longer supported. There is an update file also to download to fix this issue but when I went to manually install it it already existed so the easy fix was the fix and Media creation tool finally loaded. Took a while to download the Win 10 files but I have checked the flash drive and its all on there. Next job will be to physically install and connect the second ssd drive, disconnect my Win 7 drive, select boot from flash drive in boot menu and install win 10 on the SSD. Hopefully I can then reconnect the Win 7 drive and create a dual boot system. I believe that sounds about right but please let me know if you think differently. Cheers and thanks for your help.Comment

Wish it was that easy.Originally posted by PETEF
Windows 7 was originally drive C once you put the SDD and install windows 10 on to it will become C.
Then when you attach the Windows 7 drive it will have a new drive letter and everything that is there has a reference to the C drive and not the drive letter that is associated to it.
There are things in the registry and ini files that will reference certain programs and files that may not be present and or incorrect version.
Other than that, sounds like a plan for Windows 10.Comment
