    Sorry to see you go through such ordeal to get your Windows computer running without any satisfaction. That is what some of us have passed through in early testing of the operating system but always keeping our heads high hoping to find solutions.

    However, I would advise you install your system maker chipset first and check for Windows update if there is a better graphic driver for your system. After taking that step and you are still experiencing this problem, it is time to do clean install. It's always been the easy way to having a fairly working Windows 10 operating system at this point in time.

    Why aren't there more people concerned about the difficulty in turning Windows Updates off (through the GUI), as well as not being able to select which updates to be installed? I thought MS was moving in a more open source fashion, opening up the codebase to .NET and potentially even one day Windows, not actually wanting to lock it down worse than Windows 8.1!

    If anything, it would answer a lot of conspiracies as to what kind of spying Windows really does do on the user, if the source code was available.

    Well, I enter into Safe Mode using the System Configuration and restart the system. The keyboard works properly but it an 'integrated' keyboard for laptops though.

    I downloaded ESD and converted to ISO - Created a VM - Ran the installer and it is fully activated through my KMS Server. I did not do anything. I even installed Office 2016 and completed the activation through KMS server. Both working fine and am enjoying it.

    OK i have upgraded from my legit windows 8.1 and windows 10 is activated.

    I now want to do a clean install so which method do I do it:

    1. Open the setup and do a format clean install that way whilst logged into windows

    OR

    2. Restart pc and boot from usb stick, format and do clean install this way.

    The reason I ask is how on earth does it activate when you format? does it link your account to windows 10 and activate it so next time you do a windows 10 install from your microsoft account it will just activate it?

    Let me know asap guys

    Thanks
    Jamie

    Most will activate Office after it was converted to Volume :cool2:. there's even an online host atm (kms.xspace.in).

    Just boot from usb. It links your hardware ID in MS servers. After install when you go online it will activate automatically even without MSA.
