T60p running Windows 10 *photos*

#1 Post by micrex22 » Wed Jul 01, 2015 1:44 am

So I just finished installing Windows 10 preview on my T60p -- just to see how well everything takes. And everything does indeed work (regarding drivers).

Here's a screenshot of the desktop:

(you can see the 8 year old video driver in operation :lol: )

My only complaint is that the new 'windows' (such as settings) do not respond to the trackpoint middle scroll. This is because the driver isn't programmed to interpret these new scroll bars. *sigh*

Not a big deal since it's not like I use these kinds of windows frequently, but will be a problem down the road if programs eventually migrate to these new windows. But by that time the old T6x drivers probably won't work... but who knows.

My T60p system type is '2007', so it has the ATI FireGL 5200 series. I am not sure if the ATI Radeon or Intel motherboards are as easy to get working in Windows 10. If users of these variants come forward, let me know.

EDIT:
I should mention that I am running a Core Duo (Yonah) so this is indeed the x86 version of Windows 10; some people said 32-bit didn't exist which is a strange thing to say. I have no reason to switch to a hotter Core 2 Duo and x64 (as you can see, temperatures are already miserable enough as it is).

Moderator edit: Moved thread from the T6x forum to the Windows 10 forum.
