Skip to main content. Chris Stark's Blog. Windows 10 Technical Preview – Upgrading and Start Menu. October 3, 2014. October 3, 2014. I decided to be brave and upgrade my Surface Pro to the Windows 10 Technical Preview. Upon successfully installing I immediately clicked on the windows button… only to notice the start screen/metro interface launched instead of the start menu, little confused. It seems, well in my case you need to turn the start menu on. Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window).

Skip to main content. Chris Stark's Blog. HP MicroServer N36L replacement power supply (PSU). August 29, 2013. July 12, 2015.
