Built my system almost 10 years ago using Vista 32bit professional (E6750 CPU)...zero issues (not a gamer, it does what I need it to do).

Now as of April Vista will no longer be supported. Wondering if this mobo will support Windows 10 64 bit (with/without driver updates) or will I have to get a new one to do the Windows upgrade?

Any info would be most appreciated.

It will run windows 10 just fine. Though it may require increase of ram (at least 4GB is strongly recommended).

I had an old pc with same chipset motherboard (q6600 for cpu). It runs windows 10 great. Gave it to my old folks, they are still using it.
well go to your boards download page and see operating systems supported looks like gigabyte only officially supports up to win-7 so if you use windows 10 your at its and microsofts mercy

so I'd say you do it at your own risk . take notice how most all this new stuff is geared toward getting you off all your old good running computers ??

you would be darn lucky to find a graphics card that will work on that today seeing its not a full uefi bios as well as a few are finding out as well ???

use to they supported you and your needs but now you got to support them and there needs

good luck

try it ansd see may work out fine then it may not Linux would be a bit better I assume ? your near fully obsolete
 
ya, that's about all you can do .. like said may only run on Microsoft built in to windows 10 default drivers

can run to newegg and grab a copy of 7 ? or you stay with what you got now or give 10 a shot and see or get on Linux ..

to be honest you need to retire that build its not worth the pricr of windows overall 10 is 99 bucks 7 -$ 135 ?? Linux is free

then like I said just a small hand full of memory will work on that system and there disappearing fast todays graphics cards may not work on it cause there removing legacy bios support .. ect.......

its hard to let a good old girl go but some time you have to

Thanks for the input. I have 8GB of ram currently installed (of course not seeing all of it at 32bit)
