No. I mean if your hardware wasn't 100% same and still within tolerance, it might not work; hence the phone activation recommendation.
I'm very pleased with Windows 10 Pro x64 so far on my Clevo Notebook. Every driver has been automatically installed except for two missing entries in the Device Manager, which I installed by myself. Haven't had a single BSOD, and my Xi-Fi OnBoard Soundcard also works Two displays connected via DP are also working flawlessly with the NVIDIA driver 353.30. I REALLY can't complain and I'm looking forward to the GA on the 29th. Will do an upgrade/update or whatever Microsoft is going to distribute via WU. By far the most stable system I've had (Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 gave me some headaches).
I don't use any antivirus program if I can help it. If I have no choice, then I will often leave it on as defender until I figure out how to turn it off. When you don't download stupid things like keygens you don't have to worry about this sort of thing.
@EFA11, You are just cracking me up with your posts, and Hilarious One-liners.. I know you said don't ask, but still, What's the deal with potato ? I am planning to start a thread with funny quotes or replies at MDL..
