Could you either translate or write out the Cyrillic for us? This forum's primary language is English.

That update method is not supported. Close the installation program and run it again from the root of your drive [Meant flash/DVD/etc.] or get back and select another installation method.user99672 wrote:Could you either translate or write out the Cyrillic for us?

You can't upgrade Windows by booting from the DVD.

Re: Windows 10 upgrade from 8.1 with classic setup?
Can you post more details? Are you installing 32 bit or 64 bit edition of Windows? What kind of firmware (BIOS, UEFI) and bootloader are you using? I can read Cyrillic and it looks like it reports some kind of incompatibility error.
Translation:
This upgrade option isn't supported. Close the installation program and run it from root folder of the storage medium or go back and select another install option (translation isn't perfect).

Re: Windows 10 upgrade from 8.1 with classic setup?
Try another copy of Windows 10 (it must be x64) and use Rufus with proper partition table to put the files to the USB. If not working, make a fresh install of Windows 8 (if possible using factory recovery media) and then run upgrade directly from OS. Also try searching on Google or manufacturer's forum (if exist) for answer.
Again, make backup of data, format the HDD and make a fresh install. I can't help you more than that.

Why you didn't posted English version of that error before? There are many people that can't read Cyrillic.

With new installer it PERFECTLY works:
I'm talking about old installer, which located in iso "sources" folder
Old one is this:
New one is this:
Re: Windows 10 upgrade from 8.1 with classic setup?
Is the error not clear enough?! It clearly tells you very clearly that the old installer can't initiate upgrades anymore and that you should use the new one (in the root of the disc) to initate one.
