napamule2 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 What is surprising to me is why those that had a 'fail' (of FS9? Win10?) don't try to find out what the ones that DID have a successful update (and 'ok' FS9) had to do (or not do). PC don't vary that much (hardware). So it must be the software installed (payware, etc) that is the root cause of FS9 'fail'. In other words, a fresh install of 8.1, sans other software (including FS9) before the update would be what I would do. And I would use ONLY 1 Hard Drive, install 8.1 to it, and update to it (not 2 HDrives and a SSD). And re-start of PC after update? You have to give the process a chance. But not if your system is already taxed with bloatware and 20 programs that run on starup. In other words: ANYBODY can complicate a process and FAIL. Making things work (by using your head) is actually simple.

jgf Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 ... PC don't vary that much (hardware). ... ??? How many different mobos are available? How many different cpus? How many vid cards? How many sound cards? How many Bios variations? How many hard drives? How many RAM manufacturers? And how many different systems can you create from all that? And how many times have you heard of system dependent issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
