Unable to upgrade or install windows 10 enterprise technical preview from windows 8.1 pro

Compaq Presario SR2034NX
windows 8.1 pro build 9600 64 bit, x64processor
I have attempted a clean install booting from a burned dvd with the iso file on it using the windows 7 USB/DVD download tool, Ive attempted to boot from a usb using rufus. Ive even attempted to just run as administrator right from the download
the setup file.
Installing via USB windows 10 opens the language screen but everything on my screen is distorted, ive tried to change my screen resolution to fix this. it did not work. Once I managed to click my way to the next screen but windows 10 asked me
for a driver to be installed and I have no idea what driver that could be.
Installed via DVD and direct setup file windows 10 opens to the making sure your pc is updated.. then it downloads and says its installing. at the moment it finished installing and restarts the next screen is black and the windows wheel starts turning
it freezes.. about every minute to five minutes it will turn a bit more.. I left my pc in this state for a full 24hours without touching it and it never finished installing.
I have tried several different builds. I even downloaded bluestacks and ran windows 10 enterprise technical preview as a virtual and I was successful doing it this way but Ive already tested windows 10 on two other desktops and a laptop of mine and im ready
to make the switch. this is my last desktop to run windows 10 and its giving me a hard time.
can someone please help me figure this out

Hi Metro1952,
I found the following link indicates that there is no official driver designed for Windows 8 or later:
Compaq Presario Media Center SR2034NX Desktop PC
http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/Compaq-Presario-SR2000-Desktop-PC-series/3239110/model/3250934
So, there might be a compatibility issue.
Again, to prepare the USB installation, you need ensure that you boot from the USB device, I suggest you make a clean USB boot drive by using diskpart:
DISKPART> list disk
DISKPART> select disk x (x is the USB drive letter)
DISKPART> clean
DISKPART> create partition primary
DISKPART> select partition 1
DISKPART> active
DISKPART> format FS=NTFS QUICK
DISKPART> assign
DISKPART> exit
Then copy the all installation files to the root of the USB drive:

[Forum FAQ]Tips on Upgrading Windows 10 Technical Preview from Build 9841 to 9860

The new Build 9860 for Windows 10 Technical Preview has been released recently. Here, I would like to share some experience on upgrading Windows 10 Technical Preview from Build 9841 to 9860.
Tip 1: How to use Refresh option to upgrade.
Scenario
In order to upgrade to Build 9860, the new preview build should be downloaded firstly:
PC settings-> Upgrade and recovery->
Preview builds, which is as shown below.
If there are multiples PCs which are running Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9841 need to be upgraded, you may just want to use one copy of downloaded preview build to upgrade all of them instead of downloading the new build on each PC.
Solution
If you have upgraded one PC from Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9841 to 9860, the downloaded preview build (install.esd) can be used to upgrade other PCs. Here we can use install.esd to export the install.wim, then this intall.wim can be used as a recovery
image.
Step 1: Understand the basic information about install.esd.
Install.esd file is located at C:\ $WINDOWS.~BT\sources folder at first. When the upgrade is finished, it would be copied to
C:\RecoveryImage folder. Here is the information in setupact.log which contains information about setup actions during installation:
2014-10-28 19:03:38, Info SP Moving file D:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\Install.esd to D:\RecoveryImage\Install.esd
What’s more, the command Dism /Get-Wiminfo /Wimfile:<path_to_install.esd> is used to display the information about the file install.esd:
Step 2: Export the file install.wim.
The following command is used to export Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9860 image:
Dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:<path_to_install.esd>
/SourceIndex:4 /DestinationImageFile:<path_to_install.wim> /Compress:recovery
Step 3: Copy exported install.wim to other Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9841 computers, and set the recovery image.
For example, the install.wim has been copied to C:\image folder, the following command is used to set the recovery image:
Reagentc /setosimage /path C:\image /index 1 /target C:\Windows.
Step 4: Use Refresh option to upgrade your PC.
Go to
Update and recovery setting under PC settings, choose
Refresh your PC without affecting your files:
Note:
Applications needed to be reinstalled.
System would use the exported install.wim to refresh Windows 10 Technical Preview from Build 9841 to 9860:
Note: If you use install.esd to refresh directly, just need point the index location as 4:
Reagentc /setosimage /path C:\image /index 4 /target C:\Windows. However, install.wim is easier for deployment, such as creating bootable USB, WDS and SCCM deployment.
Tip 2: Workground to upgrade native boot VHD.
Scenario
Many users use the method native boot into VHD to test Windows 10 Technical Preview. However, there is a limitation on native boot when using VHDs:
If you boot from a VHD, you cannot upgrade the Windows version in the VHD to a newer version. This article describes how to upgrade VHD system Windows 10 Technical Preview from Build 9841 to 9860.
Solution
Step 1: Upgrade in Hyper-V.
Use Hyper-v to create a new virtual machine, and use your native boot VHD
as an existing virtual hard disk:
If booting from this virtual disk directly, it would fail to start due to lacking of boot files. You can use Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9841 ISO file to repair the startup issue:
You can boot intosystem successfully in Hyper-v, then the upgrade process would be supported.
Step 2: Create Native Boot to VHD.
When the upgrade is finished, shut down the virtual machine, use the same way to create Native Boot to VHD:
Mount the 9860 native boot VHD file.
Use the following command to create boot entry for VHD system: Bcdboot
v:\windows (v: represents the mounted virtual disk drive letter).

Hi Arman mohseni,
From my observation, if I click download now, it would create a BITS task:
We can use following command to check:
Import-module bitstransfer
Get-bitstransfer –allusers
From the output, we can see the system account created a BITS job for transferring, under the C:\Windows\Software Distribution\download, we can get the temporary downloaded file, which is approximately about 2.5G.
After we restart, and go to C:\Windows\Software Distribution\download, the temporary file is gone.
If I click the download again, the BITS would create a new task, a new temporary file, if we compare the JobIds of the two times downloading, they are totally different.
On the other hand, if we download a windows update, the JobId would be kept, and the temporary files would be kept, too.

Using Microsoft account on domain-joined Windows 10 Technical Preview

(First asked at
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_tp-security/using-microsoft-account-on-domain-joined-windows/63093b15-af76-4461-a23e-8f8b739f4960, was told to come here...)
I have in-place upgraded a domain-joined Windows 7 machine to Windows 10 Technical Preview build 9860.
I can log on as before using my domain account, but I'd also like to be able to log on using my (personal) Microsoft account.
I tried typing [email protected] in the "user" box but this didn't work.
Any clue? Maybe the only way is to first create a local account and then associate it with the MSA but IMVHO this shouldn't be necessary...

Hi sba,
If we updated to Windows 10 Technical Preview from Windows 7, Windows will keep your Windows settings, personal files, and most apps. And based on what I know, if we haven’t create a Microsoft Account on Windows 10 (or there is no Microsoft account available
before we update to Windows 10), it will not allow us to sign in with a Microsoft Account.
To make it able to sign in with a Microsoft account, we need either connect a local account to a Microsoft account (Under PC settings->Users and Accounts-> Your profile)
or
create a new user account(under PC settings->Users and Accounts->Other users->Mange other users-> Add a user);

How Do I Convert Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview and Back Without Reinstalling Windows?

Howdy,
Much like in Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Windows 10 provides you with experience that allows you to convert your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview without having to reinstall Windows.
Why would I need converting my Windows SKU (edition)
Currently, you may need this to fix issues with Windows not synchronizing browser favorites between different editions. For example, if you're using Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview in a test environment at work and Windows 10 Pro Technical
Preview at home, you won't see favorites added on Enterprise edition at home and vice versa. All the links added on Pro edition while browsing web at home won't appear on your work PC.
To convert Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10
Enterprise Technical Preview:
1. Press WindowsKey+PauseBreak and select Add Windows Features at the bottom left corner of System window.
2. In the Add features to <OSName> window click to add Product key and type in the
public product key for Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview available here.
Voila! Your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview is now converted to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview.
To convert Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview:
Following the above procedure does NOT reveal Add features to Windows 10 link button in System window.
We could try doing this through DISM tool.
1. Press WindowsKey+X and select Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
2. At the command prompt type dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition to obtain information about the current edition of Windows:
PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.9926.0
Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
Current edition is:
Current Edition : Enterprise
The operation completed successfully.
PS C:\Windows\system32>
3. Check which versions you may switch to:
PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-TargetEditions
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.9926.0
Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
Editions that can be upgraded to:
(The current edition cannot be upgraded to any target editions.)
The operation completed successfully.
Looks like Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview cannot be downgraded.
To downgrade edition from Enterprise to Pro, you can trick Windows setup into thinking it is running on Pro by going to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion and changing the following keys:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
"EditionID"="Enterprise"
"ProductName"="Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview"
I believe for Pro edition this must be
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
"EditionID"="Professional"
"ProductName"="Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview"
After that you may run in-place upgrade using Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview Setup disc.
Note, if you can't find the Add features to option in Control panel, press Windows Key + R and type control /name Microsoft.WindowsAnytimeUpgrade.
If you want to, you could change Windows edition via DISM servicing tool by running:
DISM /online /Set-Edition:Enterprise /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /AcceptEula
In case you can't access official page for
Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview download, or the page that contains
product key for Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview, you can always obtain the product key by looking for
F:\sources\pid.txt on the Windows Setup disc.
Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given...

Plextor M.2 512gb ssd works on windows 7 but not on windows 10 Technical Preview

i have found that when you try to install windows 10 on a Plextor M.2 512gb ssd the operating system locks up completely after a random amount of time usually within 10 minutes of booting it. the only way to reboot is to unplug or flip the switch
on the power supply. i have tested this also on windows 7 and it works perfect as far as i can tell. i have tried tweaking the UEFI settings and nothing fixes this. any thing i could be missing?

Hi TripleXGaming,
When you boot into Windows 10, please verify to install Windows update.
Some additional update might be useful in this situation. Like KB3021937, more information, please check:

When adding features, "Add features to Windows 10 Technical Preview" dialog displays error "Couldn't add features"

The process for adding features by selecting "Add features to Windows 10 Technical Preview" from control panel fails with error "Cannot add features. Your previous edition of Windows has been restored, but you should contact Microsoft support."
This occurs after entering the key and the system attempts to reboot and apply updates. During the reboot, the updates begin to apply, fail after a certain percent, then roll back. After rollback and logging in again the above mentioned error message is displayed
in the "Add features to Windows 10 Technical Preview" dialog. Build 9926. Any tips on how to fix this?

Hi zelgay,
This is my result:
From your error code, it seems this is relate to your windows update, please use following command to fix corrupted files:

In the meantime, you can delete temporary update files in the SoftwareDistribution folder:
Stop Windows Update service.
Open File Explorer.
Double-click the local hard disk where Windows is installed, typically drive C.
Double-click the Windows folder, and then double-click the
SoftwareDistribution folder.
Double-click the DataStore folder to open it, and then delete all files and folders in the folder.
Note If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Click the Back button. In the SoftwareDistribution folder, double-click the
Download folder to open it, and then delete all files in the folder.

Windows 10 Technical Preview Enterprise Build 9879 Product Key

Hi
Does the Windows 10 Technical Preview Enterprise 9879 uses the same product key as build 9841???

I would have been totally satisfied if the final release was B9860.
I have installed the TP on all my pc's. I have 3 desktops and a laptop that I did clean installs for on spare hard drives.
I also cloned the Windows 8.1 systems from each of them - and upgraded to Win 10 TP to see how it would handle the variety of applications I have on each.
One minor issue was that a diagnostic application I prefer to use - lost some of it's capability to display certain components like CPU specs.
The audio had been working exceptionally well up to B9860. Then I had one major issue on one of the desktops - when the audio stopped working right. Microphone audio was passed to the speaker output correctly - but NO audio
was passed from Windows Media Player or Winamp. But it did pass audio thru to the speakers from a music editing application which I use.
Even more strange was that when I moved that hard drive to another desktop which has similar motherboard - the audio works perfectly. Both have VIA audio devices.
I also installed Win10 TP Enterprise on a hard drive and had the same results as above when booted up on those two desktop pc's. Whatever evidence I could extract has been passed back to Microsoft.
On checking I find the Win10 TP and Enterprise use the same key.
Otherwise - as you say - Windows 10 is GREAT. So I can't wait for the final release.
btw: I have done about a dozen different installs and never had to enter the install key when installing any of the Win10 systems. I have the general Win10 TP B9841 ISO burned to a DVD and each install had to be upgraded to the next build available.
The Enterprise comes as B9879 and I burned that ISO to a USB3 Flash Drive. Much better performance - and re-usable. So I will not be using DVD's in future.

I can't install Windows 10 Technical Preview in Dell Inspiron M5030

Hello everyone.
I have a big problem when installing the Windows 10 Technical Preview, everything goes well until the moment that says "getting devices ready XX%" after this the screen turns black, which I had already happened when installing Windows 8.1 . I have
Windows 8 Pro and gave me problems to install, but with these two versions of Windows I always throws this error. Right now what interests me is to have installed Windows 10 Technical Preview to be developing some applications we have had in mind
a few colleagues and I, but I have not managed to install it. I have to turn the laptop to use it again, and when you start telling me "restoring your previous version of windows" And once again normally on, send me a message saying "We Could
not install Windows 10 Technical Preview" and send me the error code 0xC1900101 - 0x30018.
HELP!
I urgently need to have installed this version of windows.

Hi Domeck98,
This kind of issue is mostly caused by the driver compatibility issue during upgrade.
And it’s hard to find the culprit from installation log. The error code is sent by the setupact.log.
For a better method to test the 9879 build, it is recommended to perform a clean install in your case:
Here is the link to download the 9879 build ISO.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/preview-iso-update?os=win10
We can burn it to DVD media or use it create bootable USB drive.

Hyper-v Client in Win10 Enterprise Technical Preview does not boot to PXE via Leagacy Network Adapter after OS is installed using gen 1 BIOS

Using Hyper-v within Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to boot a Win 7 Legacy BIOS (Generation 1) Operating system client does not boot to PXE legacy network adapter after operating system has been installed within the Virtual Client.
Hyper-v Client will boot to PXE Legacy Network Adapter only when no other boot device is available and no OS is installed.
Hyper-V settings seem to ignore BIOS - Startup order within Hyper-V Client Settings and will always boot to VHD before Legacy Network Adapter even if Legacy Network adapter is first in the startup list.
IF VHD is deleted and a new VHD added to the Client then will boot to PXE using Legacy Network Adapter. Again once OS is installed then will not boot to PXE Legacy Network Adapater.
Gen 2 BIOS/UEFI works as expected and boots to PXE network everytime.

Windows 10 Technical Preview for "Enterprise"?

What's different between "Windows 10 Technical Preview for Enterprise" and "Windows 10 Technical Preview"

Hi guys,
this might sound stupid, but how do I see if I have the Enterprise Technical Preview or the other one installed? I'm pretty sure I downloaded and installed the enterprise version, but I can't find any proof within the system itself? The System Information
just says "Windows Technical Preview".
Thanks
Stefan
Something like this but correct the path;
dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:E:\Recovery\install.wim
If it doesn't say enterprise, its not.
Seems there are three installs that's ive seen.
Windows Technical Preview
Windows Technical Preview for Consumer
Windows Technical Preview for Enterprise
Thanks Mike, i no found out that i did not had the Enterprise Edition. Downloaded it now and even in Computer Information it says Enterprise now. Thank you.

Error 0x80248014 on Windows Update on Windows 10 Technical Preview Enterprise beta build 9926.

Hi
As I download the new ISO and do a software Windows Updates.
I cannot seems to get any software updates at my end. Windows update cannot find any updates for Windows Defender.
My latest Windows 10 Technical Preview version 9926 cannot seems to find any software updates.
I keep getting this error.0x80248014!
I keep getting this error since I have the first Beta Build 9841 and 9879. I did not have the download of 9860.
I wonder there is a missing Windows Update at the Control Panel.
I have to search all over the place where is the Windows Update??? The GUI is very confusing for a First Timer like me!
See my screen capture.

mrdbeta,
Click the Retry button > if you have a Windows defender Update available, it will show up on the list together with a new build such as 9935 Professional. (See my screenshot at the end of the post.)
The system will start installing and when it finishes, it will give you the same error message. That's OK. It shows the error message because it is unable to install the new build which is NOT applicable to
us, the general users. Those new builds, 9931, 9932, 9934, and lately 9935 are meant for MSFT only.
Click Advanced options > click View your updates history. Your most recent Windows Defender update should be listed. If yes, you are OK. Nothing to worry about.
MS is well aware of the mistake. They will get it fixed soon. Please read the excerpt below from Inside Hub......
Windows Insiders who have installed KB3035129 may see reports in the Settings app under Update & recovery that a new preview build is available. Attempts to download the new build result in Error 0x80246017.
KB3035129 included a code change which unintentionally had the side effect of changing targeting for builds, allowing builds that are exclusive to Microsoft employees to appear available. No new builds are available which are newer than 9926 at this point.
We will issue another update shortly to correct the issue and ensure that Windows Insiders are able to successfully get the next build which is made available to you. We apologize for the confusion and thank you for your continued participation
and feedback.
***** In the web, there is a registry modification dealing with this issue. I would suggest that you just wait for MS to sort it out. If you want to try the registry hack, google for it. Use it at your own risk

Using REGEDIT it's necessary to create a DWORD value called 'AllowInsecureGuestAuth' in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters and set this new value to 1. press F5 to refresh registry or reboot will also be necessary.
