Is there anyone trying Windows 10 Pro on a T43? It is actually fine if you just surf the web and use fb twitter youtube in 720P. Theoretically Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 works fine still.. And it takes a while to boot up and with fast boot enabled you have to press fnf4/fnf12 first to get the display to the welcome screen..

Re: Thinkpad T43 Windows 10 Pro
And I am using 2 T43s in Windows 10:
15": 2668-83U upgraded: UXGA 2.26Ghz Pentium M, 2Gb RAM, 160gb HITACHI HTS541680J9AT00, 9-cell battery
14": 2668-44U XGA 1.86Ghz Intel Pentium M, 2Gb RAM, 160gb HITACHI HTS541680J9AT00, 6-cell battery
both have fingerprint sensor and DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive and ATI Radeon X300
I have 2 Ultrabay slim batteries and a DVD Burner for T6x
Both on Windows 10 x86 10586
The UXGA one really struggles with full-screen animations (I.E Task view, full screen minimize, lock screen animations, etc.)
2.26Ghz really seemed to have an advantage in terms of video playing and system response efficiency
The newer 160gb HITACHI HTS541680J9AT00 really seemed to improve the system load time
I flashed the HDD firmware into IBM's so 2010 error does not come up during POST
For your information about updating the HDD firmware:

One thing worth noticing is that Windows 10 removed the infrared support even if you get the correct driver.
Also you have to turn off the screen once by using the sleep combination key if you have just booted the machine up from fast bootup option due to the old X300 vista driver
