If you download the windows 10 iso from microsoft's website and use the windows product key on your laptop (usually on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop) to install, windows should install even with the driver issue. You can then try installing a vista driver in compatibility mode for your gpu.

I think it's also have been reported success with simply uninstalling the ATI driver and letting Windows revert to it's generic driver. At that point it will probably allow you to run Win10. The T60's ATI drivers are after all not compatible, and people, myself included, have had issues with this in Win8.1 as well. So if you have no need for special graphics performance, it can be an idea to stick with the generic driver in Win10.

Have you tried using the Windows 7 driver for that?

If you do this try doing it in compatibility mode if W10 has this option.
