no, my MaxxAudio went bye bye, well 1/2 of it, was working fine in 8.1


I don't know anything about MaxxAudio, but I do know that I have banged
on in the Windows 10 insider forum and feedback about an Edirol device
that didn't work in 10, but was fine in 8.1.

A person who didn't identify whether he was from Edirol (ie Roland) came
on and suggested alterations to a text file in the driver package. This
made it work, and I see that now Roland's site says "Under Testing" for
the W10 drivers.

My plan is to keep testing and report problems with Windows 10, and hope
others do the same. When it feels stable, I'll decide whether to move to
it. Meanwhile I'll keep on using W7, Linux Mint and XP as my main OS's
and I'm relaxed about the support situation.

I think you have tried to jump too soon, but I can understand the desire
to get shot of 8.1
