Certain Windows 10 drivers may soon stop working

[Howard F. Cunningham]

HI Guys...

Please read what Microsoft wrote..  Part of the post reads  "..is only for new OS installations"   It goes on to say "..systems upgraded from an earlier OS to Windows 10, version 1607 will not be affected by this change."

About as bad:  I have a Win10 system upgraded from Win7 that I only use at a remote site for occasional operation there.  I do have a Internet link, but completely isolate and shut it down when not in use.  Last used in March.  Went up the other day and got the Blue Screen of Death:  Restore.......  Seems I missed the timely notice to upgrade and it killed the system.  I've gone thru every hint of a Google search and nothing works.  Joke is that the Win7 box up there just hums along.

Is it too late for a 77 yr old to learn Linux!  Maybe time for all Ham designers to switch OS?
