So i installed windows 10 tech preview and I made an image of my windows just in case i didn't like it. Which I don't (too buggy to run on main pc) how do I revert back/ load a image i made?
I haven't run into any bugs, really. Be sure to report them to Microsoft (The reason you joined the preview to begin with).
To start off, please make your Forum topics more useful. "HELP" Isn't very good for getting the people you want in your thread.
How did you make an image of your installation? What tool did you use? If you used the Windows tool for it, then you can use windows recovery to install the image.
Battlefield and other games crash (DX error) and thanks for the help!
Ahh, alright. Did you install windows 8.1 drivers, and ONLY windows 8.1 drivers? Those are the only ones officially supported. If you did, and are having those errors, then that's a big problem for this OS.
The webpage said really big and clear, that
DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE PREVIEW ONLY IF YOU
- Want to try out software that’s still in development and like sharing your opinion about it.
- Don’t mind lots of updates or a UI design that might change significantly over time.
- Really know your way around a PC and feel comfortable troubleshooting problems, backing up data, formatting a hard drive, installing an operating system from scratch, or restoring your old one if necessary.
- Know what an ISO file is and how to use it.
- Aren't installing it on your everyday computer.
If you need help, I'll gladly give u a hand, but as @Phantom said, change the thread's title for something more relevant, and provide info.
@blacktrout225:
- what software did you use to create an image?
- nVidia or AMD?
- Did you install DirectX files from a Windows8.1 version? What's the crash specifically say?
I Didn't run into any weird bugs yet. nV drivers (344.11 win 8.1 x64) didn't want to install via the installer, but I managed to "update drivers" via the device manager.
Did you install ALL of your other drivers first, then restart, then try the GPU drivers? Thats the only way that CCC would work for my AMD card.
You could always recover to a past update.
Not with this one, you cant.
I went to device manager, right click on my graphics card item, update driver, search in my pc and pointed it to the NVIDIA folder
blacktrout225, could you give us some more detail? What software did you use to create the image?
Do you have backup copies of your data?
