The Windows setup isn't functioning properly.
The Windows setup isn't functioning properly.
You may set up win10 on p35. It’s possible to start win10 if it’s running in legacy mode on that machine. If you notice only the boot screen appears and the installation fails, it could indicate an issue with the motherboard, CPU, or RAM. No, win10 doesn’t require a special BIOS to function. People often share unverified stories, but I’ve successfully installed win10 on various systems—ranging from modern i5 UEFI to older legacy models. If you experience booting and then a restart without any warning, it might point to hardware problems. I’ve seen friends buy CPUs for very low prices with claims they work in BIOS, but those products often lack proper testing and come with risks. There was one case where the processor ran perfectly in BIOS on a 6th-gen i5, everything checked out, temperatures normal, and media loaded without issues. However, the Windows installer would stop after a few seconds, and Linux would crash before launching. This suggests a faulty CPU that only boots when attempting to load something else. BIOS itself worked flawlessly across different boards, loading any media or OS just to start. Always verify with multiple motherboards and consider testing thoroughly.
