That's a coincidence! I used to have an inferiority complex too - back when I thought there was somebody as good as me!

Having seen a lot of what is being submitted as 'articles' here, this could just as easily apply to C# or VB.net. It is nothing to do with the language, it is the usage. Sadly a lot of Java work is built through obfuscation as people think that making code unreadable means it's good.
If you can't read the code and understand it then it is the programmer that is at fault and not the language.

Just upgraded a personal laptop from W7 to W10. Upgrade went smooth, booted up. But the video and sound drivers are off  No sound over HDMI, no video-duplication on HDMI, resolution looks crap, etc. It's a Dell XPS 17 so I am sure it uses popular and very standard video/sound chips. Oh well, I'll have to experiment with various beta drivers and hope it works.

Did you try Dell's website? There you can detect your computer's model and OS and get adequate drivers for them.

Yeah, that's what I am doing this morning. Thank you.

You can also try to select the device in the Device Manager, and instruct Windows to look for the latest driver for the device on the Internet. I did that on both my Dell XPS desktop and Dell Inspiron laptop and for me it worked 100% Good Luck!

Thanks, I'll try that as well.

As a matter of fact: I recommend that you have Windows check on the 'net for every device that it has the latest driver. It may take a few minutes, but can be well worth it. Also: Once you have the upgrade running, and you confirmed that it is activated, consider doing a "clean" install of Win 10. I normally format the systems drive for the clean install, but this may be unnecessary. You can get ISO files for the Windows 10 installation disc on the 'net. Just make sure you get the file for the right version (32 or 64 bits, Home or Pro).
If you install the latest Windows 10 build (number 10586), you will be spared a lengthy upgrade to this build later on.

Thank you. Looks like I would need to do a full installation from scratch.

Do you feel brave today?  Do you have some time? Can your machine boot in UEFI mode?

Nice article, but no, not today. Have had enough with the upgrade costing me so many wasted hours This laptop does not really have that much data I need to pull in, so a fresh installation would be alright. Thank you.

You probably made the right decision, under the circumstances. The procedure in the article will take several hours the first time you do it.

Did a fresh install from scratch - video and sound work now. Video over HDMI is still a problem - it can extend, but cannot duplicate. I see tons of others with the exact same problem on W10 and none of them had a resolution

In my desktop I have a GTX 745 adapter from NVidea. It has a VGA, a DVI and a HDMI output. Maybe I was lucky: Because I did not have HDMI cables, I connected my main monitor to the DVI output and the second monitor to the VGA output. Maybe I will have the same issue if I use the HDMI output? Who knows? However, the current setup works just fine. But I only run the monitors extended. Have not tried to duplicate them.
Did you update the video adapter to the latest driver?
Update: I tried to duplicate the monitors and it works fine. Do you have DVI and VGA outputs? You may be forced to go with those outputs until Microsoft or NVidea sort the issue out.
Anyhow: Welcome to the world of Windows 10!

Laptop only has HDMI. It's a known issue with NVidea cards with Optimus. The laptop display is on the Intel card and the HDMI uses NVidea. So duplicate won't work as neither card can see each other's monitors for the duplicate-scenario. Extend works as it always has. Freaking pain really. Specially if you want to do a presentation. You'd have to look at the projector to move the mouse!
