Stories like these are why I'm sticking with Windows 7. I've got too many games to possibly emerge unscathed.

I like windows 10, but then again my computer is fairly new and I have a separate graphic driver from Nvidia (who has windows 10 drivers available for nearly all of their last 2 year's of video cards). Using Windows 10 has actually fixed the issue I had with the Sims 4 on Windows 8 and finally made it playable.

I recommend contacting the place where you bought your computer to ask if they can help you out with finding the right drivers, or buy a separate graphics card and let someone install it for you.

This was my Dad's laptop, I'm not sure if he'd remember where he got it.

Ah laptops... Older than 1.5 years, I wouldn't recommend upgrading to Win10. My own laptop, 3 years old, was barely able to work when I upgraded. No drivers for anything at all. Had to downgrade back to Windows 7.

Yes, that's a new Pokemon!
If all else fails, you could download the Windows 10 Beta Version of Minecraft. However, you will either have to do the free trial or pay $9.99 for the whole game.

Minecraft: Windows 10 Beta Version

Like I said, make it a last resort. Until then, see what else you can find as I'm out of ideas myself at this point. -_-

I've had mine for several years, and its been working just fine, except for the driver problem.

I got it for free since I bought actual Minecraft, but no one has made a Forge for it to play mods with.

I have decided to just return to Windows 7, Windows 10 is not worth all this hassle.

Very wise decision, my friend.
