So here's the big question

Does FS9 work with Windows 10? If so how is it? Is it worth the upgrade?

I have yet to upgrade to windows 10 but when I reserved a copy I got a message stating that there were no issues with anything on my system and I do have FS9 I will probably wait till Saturday to update. We might have to run FS9 in compatibility mode.
As with all of the other window operating systems there is an adviser that you can run to see if you have any issues
As for updating to Windows 10 from what I have read Microsoft combined the best features of windows 7, windows 8 and windows vista to come up with windows 10
I am pretty sure that this is a 64 bit system so if you are currently running a 2 bit system it might not work as the processor and chips on your mother board may not support a 64 bit system.
I had to create a new system when I changed from 32 to 64 bit system just for that reason.
A 64 bit system will not run on a system designed for 32 bits.

If you're using an Nvidia Graphics Card, you might want to look at this...
