Teamspeak server installing 10, main rig prepping a UEFI boot drive while getting a little GTAV in.
MULTI TASKING!
 

 Glad they left the right click (start menu) admin tools like in windows 8.1
 
All drivers and devices working under 10 pro (TIR5, MFG milan crosswind rudder pedals, thrustmaster warthog HOTAS, Saitek X55 HOTAS, Saitek combat pedals)
 
Clean and lean like windows 8.1 is. 10 feels and looks the same as the dev preview with a few tweaks here and there.
 
Can't wait to see what DX12 can do for the feature of gaming.

    Hopefully game manufacturers will start DX12 game coding soon.

    Ok, I've got my first issue. I am running a clean install of 10 Pro on my Dark, full UEFI boot. When I reboot my machine to make changes in the BIOS (Advanced startup options -> Change UEFI Firmware Settings), my system hangs. I get a - in the upper left hand corner of the screen, and in the lower right hand corner, the letters AB.
     
    Any idea what this means? At this point I can only access the BIOS if I clear the CMOS.

    Your overclock might be slightly unstable. Does the same problem occur at default CPU speeds.

    I highly doubt it...I am using the same OC settings that I have been using since I originally pieced this computer together back in 2013. I'm not going to worry about it for now, everything is stable as far as gameplay and computing is concerned. No crashes or BSODs.

    Did a clean install not a update from 8.1
     
     
    A couple minor glitchs I've found with NV drivers and windows 10:
     
    GSYNC user:  you must use Vsync on with GSYNC in win10. Vsync off will cause stutter and massive frame drops.
    Not sure if this has to do with WDDM 2.0
     
    Boot times from POST to desktop.
     
    with all drivers installed aside from NV display drivers I get a 9 second Boot to Desktop.
     
    Once display drivers are installed boot time is 22 seconds.

    I have noticed the longer boot to desktop time too. 
     
    And you are missing some drivers. Make sure you install the Chipset, Management Engine, and RSTe drivers.

    No drivers missing,
     
    using ME 11.0.0.1157
    Intel ACHI 14.5.0.1081
     
    No need for actually installing Rapid storage so long as the drivers are installed. Just takes up more boot time.
