How To Revert Back To 8.1 After Upgrading Surface Pro

Dec 23, 2015

After upgrading my Surface Pro from W8.1 to W10, I have discovered the hard way that Windows 10, even in tablet mode, is not touch-centric. (I also think that the W10 UI is much more cluttered by comparison, but I realize that that is a matter of taste.)

How can I revert my Surface Pro from W10 back to W8.1?

Upgrading Overheats HP Laptop Shuts Down And When Restart It Goes Back To Windows 8.1

Jul 31, 2015

I have windows 8.1 installed on my laptop and when I try to upgrade to windows 10, it overheats, shuts down and when I restart it, goes back to windows 8.1.

My fans are clean and everything works just fine with the laptop, I don't understand why is this happening. I also have a friend with a similar laptop model who is having the same overheating problem when upgrading to windows 10 (in his case, from windows 7).

Computer Doesn't Reboot Back After Restart

Jan 21, 2016

I just currently started having this issue. My computer runs completely fine. However I applied recent windows 10 upgrades and I for some reason had to restart I cant remember why. However after the initial restart the computer simply stayed on and didn't initiate boot. I then turned off the computer and turned it back on. It boots fine, no problems. However if I set the computer to restart from the start menu it will but it wont boot back. It will just stay on and make a louder fan noise but wont reboot?

Drivers/Hardware :: No Sound After Upgrading And Computer Won't Shut Down

Aug 14, 2015

I'm having a myriad of issues after upgrading to Windows 10. I'll list them below along with what i've already done to resolve:

- Computer won't shut down.

Someone told me to disable something with the Gigabyte process on the Motherboard, didn't work. I click on shut down and the computer restarts instead.

- No sound except EXTREMELY low sound on headphones.

I've already tried installing the Windows 10 Realtek HD drivers but nothing seems to work. Eventually I somehow got the headphones to play sounds but is is incredibly low even fully maxed out. All devices show that they are "working" correctly. Also, when I test it, I can see the green bar moving as if sound is playing, but no sound in any speakers / headphones I hook to the computer comes out.

- Less important issue but the "search" bar in the bottom doesnt ever return any results, ever. It just sits there indefinitely.

Installation :: Computer Continuously Runs A Shell Script After Upgrading

Aug 28, 2015

My PC was running Windows 8.1 with no problem. I upgraded to Windows 10. Installation went fine, but right after I logged in to windows, it started to continuously run a shell script in background. A shell window pops up on the computer screen every few seconds for a fraction of a second.

This happens everytime the computer is powered on. Not only this is very disturbing, it also resets any text windows that are open at that time. So, if I am typing a password, it comes in the middle and wipes off the text from the text window.

I have tried disabling all startup programs and several running processes, nothing seem to solve the problem.

Nov 8, 2015

Desktop Icons move back to the left (default) side of the screen after customizing. this happens when the the computer is put into sleep mode and is woken up or when the monitor is turned off and turned back on. I upgraded to windows 10 Pro 64bit from windows 7 ultimate 64bit. This problem never happened with windows 7.

-Automatic turn off monitor has been deactivated - when shut off my monitor but keep my computer on and then turn back on the monitor the icons have rearranged

-I have small icons setting

-Auto align icons has been deactivated

-allow themes to change icons has also been deactivated

My Computer:
LG 34UM65 - 21x9 - 2560x1080p resolution
AMD 9590
Asus Crosshair V Formula Z
Gigabyte HD7970ghz
Corsair Platinum Ram
WD HDD
Samsung 850Pro - Windows 10 is installed on the SSD
My Drivers are all up to date. and Motherboard Bios has just been updated to 2201

Get Back After Recovery Brought Back Windows 7?

Oct 10, 2015

I was running Windows 7 and upgraded to Windows 10. I lost no data or programs or pictures, etc. Windows 10 worked fine for about a month and then developed a "restart required" loop. After several attempts I tried the Recovery option, thinking it would take me back to a restore point as in Windows 7. Instead it took me back to Windows 7 and all data and programs (other than the Windows 7 default programs) are gone. How can I get back to either 7 with my data and programs or 10 with my data and programs?

No Restart After Upgrading

Aug 13, 2015

I'm having some hard times with my pc after installing windows 10...I used to have windows 8.1 and everything was fine. Since I downloaded 10:

-it's no more possible for me to restart my pc: it stops during the process.
-programs behave weirdly: adobe is going mad, it's no more possible to close skype when I don't need it, and other minor issues.

Now, I tried to go back to Windows8.1, I tried to reset the pc, BUT OF COURSE I CAN'T BECAUSE THE RESTART OPTION DOESN'T WORK!!!

Don't Get Any Sound After Upgrading

Mar 15, 2016

Quite simply after updating to Windows 10 I've have had no sound on my computer for months now and don't know what to do. I've updated drivers like 12 times and I still don't get any sound and it's annoying having to put headphones in all the time. I have an Alienware and the crappy part is that I'd only had it a couple weeks before it happened. It happend right after the update so I'm guessing it has to do with something on the OS.

Should Install SSD Before Or After Upgrading

Dec 14, 2015

I have a windows 7pro system that I have used for about 3 years. A fairly substantial mix of software installed over time has predictably slowed down performance enough that a clean OS install is in order. I also have a SSD I would like to install as the primary C drive as well as the update to windows 10.

There are two ways to go about this, and am not sure which is the most reliable or cleanest way.

a) I can install the SSD then reinstall win7, and 3 years worth of OS patches. Wait around until Microsoft notifies me of availability of windows 10, install windows 10 and then install all the application software.
b) I could upgrade to windows 10 get a license key(?). Then install the SSD, next reinstall windows 10 and finally all the application software.

Upgrading OS From OEM To Retail

Sep 6, 2015

I am going to switch out most of the components besides RAM, HDD, and CD-ROM. I have been informed that an OEM version of Windows is tied to the motherboard, but I need to switch out the motherboard. I understand that I need to purchase a retail version of Windows 10.

My question is how do I replace the old OS (Windows 8 upgraded to Windows 10) with a retail version? I am going to be keeping the HDD, so how exactly would I go about replacing the current OS on my HDD?
