Windows 10
Has anyone began the conversion to 10? Problems, comments? Do you know if it loads on top of say, 7, or replaces all of the older version? Thanks, Jim

I now have one computer that is XP (Can not upgrade those without $$$$) one 8.1 (Will likely upgrade next week) and this one running 10.
So far I'm happy with the 10
As for "Bricks" it is true that windows 8 and above WILL BRICK some accessories.. The one I know of.. I have 3 "Genuine article" devices that work 100% under 8 or 10.. I do not have any counterfits.. The counterfits get bricked.
I do have another Genuine Article version of that same adapter but by a different company.. That company has yet to provide drivers for 8 or 10 so their products do not work
That adapter was repalced by the 3rd of the ones which do work.
(These are USB <->RS232 adapters. FTDI (work) and Profilic (Work with XP) the counterfit FTDI chips turn to brick if used with 8 or 10 will no longer work or so I am told.. As I said, I do not have any. I got the good stuff.
