grandpauj1 Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 I don't know, I don't have 10. I know going from 7 to 8.1 I had issues with compatibility. I now run everything (for Fallout 3) as administrator, GECK, NMM, FO3 Edit and FOMM and every thing seems to be working fine. Not sure if that will help, but did for me.

isseymiyake Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 call me crazy but I notice a 10fps increase in windows 10 both in FO3 and NV compared to windows 8.1 wich is why ANYONE should just go ahead and swich them old world windows to the new world Windows 10 :Dits remarkable fast compared to other windows editions, and i've posted a thread with a Win10 fix for Fallout 3 already should your's fail to launch after upgrade :) Isseymiyake - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Based on benchmark testing by several sites - there is very little performance gain if any in going from Win 8.1 to 10. Your game is not going to run any faster or with higher fps. As with any new OS, there will be bugs. There is no rush to change, your free upgrade is good for a year. Do it when it is convenient for you not in a big rush. I plant to wait a while to let the early adopters find the bugs. I did jump right into Win7 when it first came out and didn't regret it - there were very few bugs in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpauj1 Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks for all the replys, I did reserve my (free) copy of 10, so if I do upgrade I won't have to pay for it. Lot's of positive input so I'm sure I will, but think I will wait for a bit for the bugs (or aleast some of them) to get worked out. Again thanks for all thr responces. This site and all of you guy's/gal's rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Di0nysys Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 What BBEN said is right. No performance improvement in video games but a noticeable improvement in boot times. That's about the only reported performance increase i've seen mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandpauj1 Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 well am in the process (I have Hughesnet )0: so will take a while) of down loading windows 10. Will let everyone know how it work's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpauj1 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Got it done, Downloaded and installed flawless, just like as if Windows has done this before. Had a little time to kill so thought I would try to play FO3. The first thing that poped up is we will now detect your graphics card (or something like that) which I thought was a bit strange. Your settings will be set to medium???? I play Skyrim at high!! So after going to DXDIAG my display was showing the on board chip and device manager showed my card, but with the "This thing ain't working" symbol (o; Reinstalled drivers for my card, and all is good now. If any body has a clue why I still have the "Not working " thing in my other devices I would love to here about it. I don't know how to do the FPS thing, but plays as good if not better then on 8.1 imo. Played for about 1 1/2 hours flawlessly. Tried FONV and Skyrim with same results, both played great. Thanks again for the help and advice, I have said it before You Guy's/Gal's rock!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy1969 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The coprocessor thingie in other devices is strange, do you have an intel or AMD processor? If it's an intel then try to install the latest intel drivers from their website, if that doesn't work you can try to right click on the coprocessor, select uninstall this device and then reboot, windows should detect it again and hopefully install it right this time.
