I am actually pretty surprised how easy MS have made it for people to upgrade to Windows 10 even if they're not running a legal copy of Windows 7 or 8 and for that machine to be classed as then running a legit copy of Windows 10.
Checked my laptop HDD out using speedfan and it is basically telling me it is knackered and needs replacing so i will through a 240GB SSD in there to breath new life into the laptop!

W10 runs quite well on a low spec machine, better than Windows 7, but I just have to be careful not to give it too much to do. Incidentally, Nvidia have now brought out Windows 10 drivers. Installing those after my main conversion task made a real difference to the crispness of the system.

If you remove the blurring on the theme that may improve it further.
