For those of you running the Windows 10 insider preview NVIDIA driver 353.50 is available in Windows Update BUT Microsoft has stripped out the OpenCL capability in those drivers which means that programs like 'folding@home' will not work. 

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    Robert, any exact release date for Windows 10 final?
    you seem to use it for some time now, what's your honest opinion?
     
    I signed for the free upgrade but I'm not sure if I should not rather go on with 8.1 Pro.

    It`s suposed to be July 29th, I would definitley wait on upgrading for awhile.
    But I`ll tell you this, it`s certainly better then 8.1
     
    And you can get W10 drivers directly from nvidia, no need to use windows update.
    Using windows update to install nvidia drivers is not the correct way to do it anyway.

    Will this be a future problem for those of us who wish to Fold using Windows 10?
