T510 compatible with Windows 10?

[blackthinkpad]

Is it possible to run Win 10 on T510? If so, is it relatively straight forward for clean install or it's going to be an uphill battle (lack of drivers, BIOS, etc)? How do I get an OEM copy inexpensively considering the T510 doesn't worth much these days? Thanks.

It'll work fine.

It'll work fine.

Do I need to worry about the existing BIOS on my T510 as I understand Win 10 needs newer UEFI to run?

No more free Win 10 upgrade?

Win 10 doesn't need uefi.
And the free upgrade still works.

I got my T510 installed with Win 10. Thanks to all. Is it safe to update the Lenovo system drivers using Windows Update? The Lenovo System Update software doesn't seem to support the T510 as it keeps finding nothing.

Just wanted to say. I got the free upgrade to Windows 11 and it hasn't been half bad. With Microsoft's own "winget", and using TinyWall to block windows updates, Windows 11 hasn't been half-bad for me. I had a T410 back in the day, don't know if a T510 would be compatible with Windows 11, but if anyone wants to avoid windows telemetry and forced updates, use their winget program to uninstall cortana/microsoft store/xbox stuff, and TinyWall to block windows updates. You can still use the Microsoft Update Catalog to upgrade manually as you choose.

It's been a good choice for me personally.
