Protect Yourself From Tech Support Scams

Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers trick you into paying for unnecessary technical support services. You can help protect yourself from scammers by verifying that the contact is a Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Employee and that the phone number is an official Microsoft global customer service number. 

Hi Logan,

Thank you for your interest in Windows 10 Technical Preview.

Older drivers can be installed in compatibility mode in Windows 10 Technical preview. Since this is just a preview version, specific drivers are not likely to be available.

Download the required drivers from the below link.

http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/lenovo-y-series-laptops/y50-70-notebook-lenovo/downloads/DS100264

Refer the steps to install the driver in compatibility mode:

1. Rightclick on the setup file of the driver and select Properties.

2. Select Compatibility Tab.

3. Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode and select the operating system accordingly from the drop down list.

4. Let the driver to install and then check the functionality.

    

Hope this is helpful. Feel free to write to us for further assistance with Windows.

hello, I wanted to test out windows 10 for myself on my Lenovo y50. After all, it is the newest laptop I have. I notice that I have intel HD graphics only detected and that it won't detect my NVidia GeForce GTX driver...

If anybody can help me download that missing driver I'd greatly appreciate it. If I can't download the driver and have to wait till windows 10 is all fixed, I will not mind and stick to intel HD graphics for gaming, although it might be hard...

I tried downloading the windows 8.1 driver for my laptop and it won't work.

If you need more details I will gladly state it, thank you.

Hi

Many developers will wait until a later, stable, build of a preview product is released before they develop drivers for that new OS.

I recommend that you check with Nvidia support about their plans to support Windows 10.

I may be better to simply stick with the Intel Graphics until Nvidia releases the newer Windows 10 drivers.

Regards
