Gene here, clean install mostly fine except for the afore mentioned surround/DTS 5.1 issue. Also my Saitek X52-Pro now causes the PC to restart sometimes. No warning in the event log. System just restarts as if it lost power. This happenes 2-3 times pr. day with the X52 plugged in.

Installed Windows 10.

Only issue I have is with the Realtek sound drivers. Mic isn't working because Realtek is the worst for mics

Everything working fine on ranger vii although would still like to see AI Suite 3 available for download under the windows 10 drivers tab,

Seen others say it works fine under compatibility mode but still would be nice to have a definite answer by putting it under windows 10 to say yep its been tested and works as it should.

Sounds like I'm waiting a few months for stuff to settle. Non-working DTS/Dolby (I rely on DTS Connect to get 5.1 audio out from games etc. to my receiver over optical cable), no wireless LAN drivers yet, and Saitek stuff causing restarts (not to mention they have no Win10 drivers/software yet either).

Is this still not working on win 10 with a hero viii board, surely the surround sound should be ok by now ?

I have installed Win 10 on my M7H and I'm able to install all the drivers except for IRST 14.5
14.5 is the latest version on Asus Support page and on Intel official website.
I can install the driver via Device manager by updating the driver, but once I have installed the IRST software, my system will freeze.
While it's froze, music keeps playing normally, and I can move my mouse and click on icons, but there won't be any responses. 😞

You probably should consider a clean install of 10 now that additional updates have been released. My upgraded 8.1 to 10 system is running okay but I wan to perform a clean install of 10 later on to remove any residual effects of 8.1 from the registry.

I allowed the auto upgrade. Did not like it. Really slowed my system down. When I went back to Win 8.1, many of my programs did not work right.
Definitely does not appear to be the best upgrade choice I have made.

I have done a clean install of Windows 10 by using parted magic to wipe drive, then using win 10 to clean drive then create a formatted primary partition. Then installed win 10. This does away with the (methinks it a 200 mb) unnecessary partition. Also this was a GPT (UEFI) disk install. I usually just do a regular bios (MBR) install. From than stand point I may redo it back to a regular bios (MBR) install because I don't have a 2TB drive or larger.

All seems well, I did have a few minor problems but nothing to write home about.

But I am really liking Windows 10 so far.

G/L all and clean install!!!

I've used it with Windows 10, no issues but went back to Windows 7 due to issues with SLI.
