It took a while but I've finally upgraded to Windows 10.

Is it any good? I heard some people say its what Windows 8 should've been. I've not really looked into it much yet.

My only real concern is will all my pictures and games be lost or will they transfer over and will the games actually work on the new Windows? Anyone know?

I haven't really had a proper look at it but I've no complaints thus far.

All your pictures, games and miscellaneous stuff should be remaining as I've still some pictures that were in "My Documents" and I've still also got my Football Manager save game and that still works.

Thats good to know. I'm backing up a load of stuff anyway, photos and all that are off my laptop and onto the main PC for now. Apparently its a 3gb download? I'll probably start that tomorrow morning because my internet is slower than Michael Dawson and there is no way it would get done today.

I'm not sure how much the download was as I was too 'scared' to check, ha! It automatically downloaded last night for me and didn't get completed until near half past 10, I delayed the installation until this morning and that took about an hour and a bit. It's probably the best thing I haven't had to pay for.

Only complaint I've got, is that now I've upgraded, my computer won't shut down or go to sleep properly; the screen goes black but the computer itself never turns off.

You went to school with William Troost-Ekong?

Good knowledge.

Didn't know him very well, school year below me, but I played football with him a fair bit on our lunchtimes. He's been on football manager for years, but at least I can now say I've played against an international footballer.

I went to school with Kyle Naughton and Kyle Walker (both in the same year as me).

Also in the same year from the same school was Waide Fairhurst who plays for Torquay.

A cokehead I know went to school with Jake Livermore, reckon its something in the water out that way.

Since i've got Windows 10 up and running the fan on my laptop is constantly loud and pissing me off. Should've just stayed with Windows 7 to be honest, all its done is added stuff i'm not interested in and made the fan loud and warmer than normal.

Also just found that mp4 videos don't seem to work at all. Great.

I was just pleased that we (Grimsby) seemingly managed to get back in the football league. One of the records is a 6-0 defeat to Barnsley in the JPT, in 2052!

Edit: Just had a look at the massive spreadsheet, Town spent 6 season in the Premier League. 6 out of a 1000! Typical Town.

The guy has now also added the download to the save game!

Arsenal joke, 4th on the all-time list, even after 1000 years!

That's quality!

Crazy to see that Arsenal's 49 game unbeaten run is still a record too!

Getting pissed off with Windows 10. Error messages every time I try to play videos, can't watch streams they just flash black and white and overall everything is just slower.

I don't have any of those problems.

Had a phone interview today with an insurance company for a full time job. I'm assuming I passed that as I was asked to go for an interview in person this Friday and asked if I had to serve notice in a current job.

Great day tbh, also started running again at the gym. Nearly 5 months post op now and knee didn't really react badly to a minute here and there running on 8km on treadmill \o/
