Thanks Rob,
Like I said, I'm running FM10, and NOT FM2015. And I don't have the bucks to
spring for that either.
I've been a "Framer" since 1998 when I learned and used FM 5.5.6, then version
7, then 7.1, then 8, then 10 (at home) and now version 11 at my office.
All comments aside from various others that everything after FM8 is unstable,
FM10 has so far been fine on my platform.
And now on to the great unexplored wilderness (for me) of Windows 10 . . .

Windows 7 64-bit with 8GB, Windows 10 should be relatively smooth,
though some drivers might break. If you're running FrameMaker 2015
with all updates maybe it would work without tweaking. I'd make a full
backup before trying.
FM 2015 update 1 was the first version to officially support Windows
10, and I've read of numerous problems with older versions.
