| 1424366 | 2016-08-11 23:14:00 | Yeah did one last week, never had W10 on it, but after a HDD failure put the New W10 in. Interesting thing is it wouldn't activate with the newer version of W10 14393 so had to put in the older 10586 first, then it activated and did a fresh install from that. BUT its is time limited, as in sooner or later MS will pull the plug on doing it (maybe) ;) |

| 1424368 | 2016-08-12 00:48:00 | You can install 10, without any key, & use it unactivated. It works (with some restrictions) There isnt(wasnt) a time limit on unactivated 10, but you run the risk of MS deciding to kill it off at any time. Its an option for old, seldom used XP PC's & laptops . Or for a bit of fun, see how low in spec you can go & have 10 usable . Ive installed 10 on a very very old XP laptop with 1G RAM . |

| 1424369 | 2016-08-12 01:27:00 | You can still do a clean install of Windows 10 and activate it using your Windows 7 / 8 key, done a couple today already. They were done using the latest anniversary update. |
