I HAVE TWO ASUS NETBOOKS.

1. INTEL ATOM N550 WITH INTEL GMA 3150

2. INTEL ATOM N2600 WITH INTEL GMA 3600

NUMBER 1 IS PROPERLY UPGRADED TO WINDOWS 10 WITH 3D FEATURES.

NUMBER 2 IS NOT BECAUSE OF INTEL GMA 3600!!!

HOW CAN YOU EXPLAIN THIS??!!!

I do not have an exact explanation of this behavior because both graphics controllers are not supported by Windows 10.

That's true. I have the same problem, I tried win 10 with 2 netbooks, the first one with a N455 Atom and GMA 3150, windows downloaded the drivers automatically and it worked great, the other one had a N2600 with GMA 3600 and it ran very bad,no VGA driver at all... It's a shame...

I CANNOT BELIEVE SUCH ANSWERS.

I AM NOT BLIND. I AM NOT DREAMING.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW I TELL YOUR PROBLEM. GMA 3150 WORKS PROPERLY BECAUSE IT'S INTEL GPU BASED. BUT GMA 3600 IS PowerVR BASED.

MOST PROPAPLY YOU DON'T CARE BECAUSE OF THIS.

I AM REPEATING AGAIN. I HAVE AN ASUS NETBOOK WITH GMA 3150 AND ATOM N550 UPGRADED TO WINDOWS 10 HOME FROM WINDOWS 7 STARTER.

I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER ASUS NETBOOK WITH GMA 3600 AND ATOM N2600 IS SUFFERING.

REGARDS,

I'm with you! I got the same results as you, a Toshiba with Atom N455, GMA3150 and Windows 10 got the drivers from windows update, but the other one, a Samsumg with Atom N2600 and GMA3600 got nothing, is using the basic vga driver limited to 800x600 and incredibly slow...

unfortunately, you are trying to distract subject.

offical microsoft web site indicates min. graphic spec. as "Graphics card: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver"

according to "dxdiag" on windows 10 GMA 3600 has WDDM 1.3 level architecture and directx 11.2 but no driver.

GMA 3150 has WDDM 1.0 level architecture and diretcx 9 works very well on Windows 10 with driver and 3D features.

WDDM is another issue for general video performance of OS.

but as you can see WDDM 1.0 level GMA 3150 works with win 10 without any performance problem.

what about GMA 3600?!

Hello All,

We have confirmed with our engineering department that the graphics controller Intel(R) GMA 3600 will not support Windows 10. The graphics controller was designed to work with Windows 7 32 bit.
