How windows 10 go on a Aspire 571_p v5? I'll be able to read a DVD etc.?
I am considering windows experiences 10 devoted a 571_p v5.
Does anyone have a good sttory thereon (e.g. installation went well and windows 10 works well on this device)?
From previous posts, I see that some people have had various questions - I just wanted to know if things were going well for everyone. I'm good in seeing that the v5 Aspire 571_p is * not * on windows 10 supported models list (gulp) http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/windows10-eligible-models?
If I install windows 10 on this device, I will be able to for example play commercial DVDs / movies etc. without having to purchase additional software from microsoft? Or do I have reason to assume that none of the media playing software available on the device (for example, clearfiMedia) can be re-installed in windows 10 after the upgrade?
Thanks a lot for any help

That model is not on the list does not mean that it is not compatible, it is enough that Acer think it must provide new drivers. There are already compatible drivers or the model is too old for it to make sense to create new drivers. In most cases, it is the former.
Windows 10 does not natively to DVD movies. You need to add the software so that this feature to work. You don't need to buy the software from Microsoft, there are a lot of other editors, and most likely if you have a software like that already installed it will still be there after the upgrade. You can upgrade the software to the latest version before the upgrade but just to be sure.

Windows Media Player XP Professional will not read the DVD.
I can't get my Windows Media Player XP Professional to play DVDs. The system is only a couple of years and it used to read discs, but for several months, it is no longer made. WMP keeps my music library and can play these songs without problem, but it will not play a DVD. Why is this the case and I need to do about it?

How windows Defender to continue to run with security essentials
How windows Defender to continue to run with most of the security. When I installed the essentials Defender stopped running. I tried everything I know. missing in admin tools and all programs and it starts and stops. Oh, I'm on Dell Inspiron 545 Vista 64-bit Service Pak 2
Hello
Defender is NOT supposed to work with MSE, and there is no worlaround.
If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
.
If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:
"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"

Or the program Autoruns for FREE:

Windows 7 installed on acer aspire 5516
Hi, I installed windows 7 on my acer aspire 5516, but I am not satisfied by the graphics.
I know that windows 7 can install most of the drivers for your laptop or computer and I also know that windows 7 works better with the new processors (quad core, core duo, core 2 duo of), I checked my video card and it says:The current video card can support Aero with a driver that is compatible with the driver model (WDDM) Display Windows. Contact the manufacturer of your video card or computer for a WDDM compatible driver.
I clicked next and it was checking the video card and I read: video card driver does not support the Aero effects... is not fixed
What can I do?
Help, pleaseIf Acer does not have a driver, there is nothing you can do... Mike Hall MVP - Windows Experience http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/

How Windows 7 directly editable either in the registry or the netsh commands to produce a 512 KB (524288) RWIN value as set forth in a capture of packets?
