Hi CNS,

We may check the compatibility under the Microsoft compatibility Center:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/CompatCenter/Home

For the report that showed by the Get Windows 10 App, please see:

Compatibility report for Windows 10: FAQ

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/compatibility-report-windows-10

Besides, if there is no available information showed out in Microsoft compatibility Center (frankly, I don't found it), then please contact the device manufacturer side for further assistance.

Regards

For any and all Windows 10 discussions you must post in the appropriate Windows 10 IT Pro forum.  Click on the link to go there.

This is a Windows 7 forum and Windows 7 does not have the same problems as Windows 10.  Therefore you must post in an appropriate Windows 10 IT Pro category forum where Windows 10 problems are discussed!

Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread. ”

WIN 10 installed, but the boot to complete desktop time was

about 5 times higher than with WIN 7 due to non explicable

disk activity during boot.

therefore I am going back to WIN 7.
