BEFORE UPGRADING Upgrade Paths Windows 10 provides upgrade paths from Windows 7 SP1 and Windows 8.1 Update (KB2919355) or newer updates. Windows 7 (original release), Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 (original release) must first be updated to Windows 7 SP1 or Window 8.1 Update to be able to upgrade to Windows 10. Availability Windows 10 is available from the Windows 10 download page. Non-Supported Upgrade Options Cross-language installations are not supported if you plan to keep any apps or Windows settings. Cross-architecture upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit OS is not supported. You will need to do a clean wipe and install. Data and Operating System Backup It is always recommended to backup your personal files before you start the Windows 10 upgrade / clean installation. We would advise you to create copies of the recovery DVDs (Recovery Boot Disc, Factory Image Discs & Application Disc) using the Fujitsu MyRecovery or System Restore and Recovery applications. Please ensure that you perform this important step as Fujitsu is not liable for any data loss. Drivers and Utilities Downloads Drivers for Windows 10 are installed by Windows Update. To ensure a smooth installation procedure, we would recommend you to visit Fujitsu Support Page for the Windows 10 drivers, utilities, firmware, applications and documentations. Please download and save them to external media, such as a portable hard disk drive (HDD), to prepare for your Windows 10 upgrade / clean installation.

Applications, personal files and Windows settings will migrate as part of the upgrade; however some applications or settings may not migrate. Some features of Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 have been deprecated, and there are additional requirements to use certain Windows 10 features.

  • Microsoft Windows 10 Update Hello, Microsoft Has Begun
    Subject Line: Microsoft Windows 10 Update Hello, Microsoft has begun pushing a warning message to Windows 10 computers that a critical security update must be performed. Several clients have informed us that they are seeing the warning message. It will appear as a generic blue screen after your computer has been powered up, and it states that after April 10, 2018 Microsoft will no longer support your version of Windows 10 until the critical security update has been performed. Please note if your UAN computer has not been recently connected to the internet, you would not have received this message. UAN has confirmed that the warning message is a genuine message from Microsoft, and UAN strongly encourages all clients to perform this critical security update as soon as possible. Please note: ‐ This update is a Microsoft requirement and UAN cannot stop or delay its roll out. To perform the critical security updated select the ‘Download update’ button located within the warning message. ‐ This update is very large, for those clients that have metered internet usage at their home may want to perform the update at a different location with unmetered high speed internet, perhaps at another family member’s home. ‐ Several UAN staff members have performed the critical security update on their home computers, and the process took more than an hour to complete. To check that your computer has been updated or to force the update at a time that is convenient to you, go to the windows Start button and click on Settings (the icon that looks like a gear above the Start button) > Update and Security > Windows Update > Check for Updates and then follow the instructions on the screen.

  • Introduction to Windows 7
    [Not for Circulation] Introduction to Windows 7 This document provides a basic overview of the new and enhanced features of Windows 7 as well as instructions for how to request an upgrade. Windows 7 at UIS Windows 7 is Microsoft’s latest operating system. Beginning in the fall of 2010, UIS will upgrade all classroom and lab PCs to Windows 7. Any new PC that is ordered will automatically come installed with Windows 7. To request an upgrade, contact the Technology Support Center (TSC) at 217/206-6000 or [email protected]. The TSC will evaluate your machine to see if it’s capable of running Windows 7. (Your computer needs a dual core processor and at least 2 GB of RAM.) Please note that University licensing does NOT cover distribution of Windows 7 for personally owned computers. However, it is available for a discounted price via the WebStore at http://webstore.illinois.edu. What to Consider Before Upgrading There is no direct upgrade path from Windows XP to Windows 7. Therefore, the TSC will take your computer, save your files, and install Windows 7 on a clean hard drive. Please budget a couple days for this process. In some cases, you may have older devices that will not work with Windows 7. While many vendors are providing and will continue to provide drivers for their hardware, in some cases, printers, scanners, and other devices that are more than 5 years old may have issues running on Windows 7. To check the compatibility of your devices with Windows 7, visit the Microsoft Windows 7 Compatibility Center at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/default.aspx.

  • Increasing Automation in the Backporting of Linux Drivers Using Coccinelle
    Increasing Automation in the Backporting of Linux Drivers Using Coccinelle Luis R. Rodriguez Julia Lawall Rutgers University/SUSE Labs Sorbonne Universites/Inria/UPMC/LIP6´ [email protected] [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] Abstract—Software is continually evolving, to fix bugs and to a kernel upgrade. Upgrading a kernel may also require add new features. Industry users, however, often value stability, experience to understand what features to enable, disable, or and thus may not be able to update their code base to the tune to meet existing deployment criteria. In the worst case, latest versions. This raises the need to selectively backport new some systems may rely on components that have not yet been features to older software versions. Traditionally, backporting has merged into the mainline Linux kernel, potentially making it been done by cluttering the backported code with preprocessor impossible to upgrade the kernel without cooperation from the directives, to replace behaviors that are unsupported in an earlier version by appropriate workarounds. This approach however component vendor or a slew of partners that need to collaborate involves writing a lot of error-prone backporting code, and results on developing a new productized image for a system. As an in implementations that are hard to read and maintain. We example, development for 802.11n AR9003 chipset support consider this issue in the context of the Linux kernel, for which on the mainline ath9k device driver started on March 20, older versions are in wide use. We present a new backporting 2010 with an early version of the silicon, at which point the strategy that relies on the use of a backporting compatability most recent major release of the Linux kernel was v2.6.32.
