Installed Windows 10

[lostsoul65]

I installed Windows 10 on an old 7 year old computer when it first came out as a beta and it worked fine. I have the DVD with windows 10 and it boots but says it has errors and I need to fix them. I formatted the drive which was the only active drive on my new i5 computer and the same thing, so do I need to download windows 10 again and if so where?

so do I need to download windows 10 again and if so where?

Hello and welcome to the forum.
You should probably make an effort to use the latest build of Windows 10 and......
You can get it from here http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/preview-iso-update-1504

lostsoul65,
You said you installed Win 10 when it first came out. That would be build 9841. That's all you told us.
Have you kept it upgraded when each newer version was released ?
Build 9841 and 2 other builds have since expired. Your DVD night be no good anymore.

Here is the table of Expiration Date of each build....

If you don't have the most recent build which is 10074, install now.

When I burn to a DVD can I boot to an empty Disk and load it or do I need an OS? I don't want to trash my Windows 7 OS so I can unplug all my drives except one that has been formatted?
