hi jeffrey,

whether w10 can run on machine dependent on it's hardware. vista rather old meaning machine not much. post can hardware , more can said on this.

while machine might capable of running w10, think unlikely able 'upgrade' it, i.e. install w10 while keeping files, personalization , settings. @ least make sure have backups of things want keep. also, you'll loose ability run of apps made vista, long deprecated. , in case upgrade not free.

regards,

stephen
