The scheduled forum maintenance has now been completed. If you spot any issues, please report them here in this thread. Thank you!
I'm so sick of the way Tom's does pictures. I have to click a small, almost unreadable image to get to an even smaller unrecognizable thumbnail to get to a new not-quite-maximized window just to be able to see something that should have been viewable on the page I was looking at initially.
What? NEED UEFI? that CANT be right... but may be that's the MS cunning plan.. "yes win 7 and and 8 can all have it as free update" knowing full well that most cant update as will need new Mobo!!! that's got to be wrong. EVEN MS cant be THAT crazy.. can they?
Wait, so we NEED an UEFI motherboard now to run it? So I can't install it on any of my older windows 7 computers?
For those who are confuse about the UEFI requirements...
You need the UEFI for "Secure Boot".. (This was stated clearly in the article above... )
May be you the one who needs read the article.. read all of this bit,...
"The only change between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 for system requirements on the desktop is the mandate of UEFI v2.3.1. Windows 8.1 was required to have UEFI v2.3.1 for Secure Boot, but this was an optional feature. In Windows 10 this is no longer optional."
Any questions?

So you telling me you installed windows 7 on pc that was running windows xp and now you scream cause why?
Yes you need a UEFI BIOS. Any pc you recently bought within the last 4-5 years or any pc your build will have a UEFI BIOS.

if you have not, get with the times. How much longer do you expect MS to support such old tech. I am sure you still want support for your old dot printer too right?

I run it on my laptop which does not have UEFI so I don't get why they said that. It strictly says BIOS.
