Samsung 102SP NOTEBOOK

I have a Samsung 102SP NOTEBOOK which does not have a Windows 10 driver for the graphics and there is no possibility of one being available according to what I have read on the internet.


Can I get an external USB graphics card and will it work or am I forever stuck with Windows 7 and Microsoft nagging me to upgrade to Windows 10?


I know I can get rid of the nagging for a little while but it eventually come back.

    Windows 7 & 8 drivers are very likely to work in Windows 10. Vista, XP and Win 2000 drivers might even work.
    If you're inclined, and have a backup of your data, you might find W10 will work just fine.

    I agree, the Sammy netbooks seem to be quite unfussy - I have Win 10 running fine on a N150+ (2011 I think?) and a friend has it on an older model with no issues.

    Doesn't work, I'd already tried it.
    I had to revert to Windows 7 from safe mode.
