Win 10 drivers for XPS17 L702X
Dell states that the XPS17 is not being tested for Win 10 upgrade !!!!
How is this possible????
This top-of-the-line computer cost nearly $3000, and is barely 3-years old, and Dell has the audacity to not support it with the latest Microsoft operating system ???? Inconceivable!
Here's an excellent reason to never buy a Dell product!!!! This type of 'designed obsolescence' does not bode well for any company in today's competitive environment.
Perhaps a forum member can suggest if any Win 10 drivers will work . . .

Windows 10 should have all the drivers you need built in.
As for time, 3 years is generally the dividing line between supported and "end of life" or "legacy". It's used by most other vendors as well - apple in particular. You can in fact not buy a warranty longer than three years on Apple hardware -- at 3 years old, Apple calls the system "ancient history".
And the L702x series is about five years old -- so it's long been end of life.
