installation is failing...gonna try again tonight.

what's the best way to perform a backup?

I believe it's a native backup program on windows. but either way, what you want to do is copy all the files you want to save (movies, music, etc.)

I also believe win 10 has an inplace-upgrade/install where you can keep all current files and install win10 without much action on your side.

but if you said it failed then you definitely want to take an external drive and save all the important files you want to keep. also, you may have some security feature activated which causes your install to fail. or could be under-geared

installed setup to usb and got it to start installation.
system reboots and begins to copy over files.

gets about 8% in and then restarts...then tells me it's gonna revert to previous OS.

WTF???

i5 3570k
16g ddr3 ram
40 gigs free on my SSD
970gtx

i think i can run the OS.

my pc has been acting funny the past few days though, that's why i decided to install 10.
chrome started crashing and giving me BSOD...virus scans found nothing, malwarebytes and spybot found nothing crazy....

so here i am with a $119 OS that i can't install.
