Ok. Don't really do anything out of the ordinary, just music, pics

and internet so don't have anything special installed. Only thing that might cause a problem is the home copy of my old Solidworks 2014 licence from my old company (I was supposed to take it off but they cancelled their support contract so have no one who would know that I still have it installed). Apparently it's not supported on Windows 10 but forums suggest it works fine.
I'll give it a go, can always revert to 7
