Greetings,
Polling ASRock support and forum members to inquire if it is possible to run Windows 10 on the EP2C602-4L/D16 MoBo.
I am attempting to do so (Windows 10 pro 64), and receiving massive and frequent crashes ( driver_irql_not_less_or_equal, etc.,). Thinking I've surpassed the point of diminishing returns and looking to downgrade (Windows 8.1 or 7 Pro), but thought I'd check here to see if there's any hope.
Build:
