Have you tried steam on it yet and games?

No, I haven't tried anything, really... But it seems it wont be free for Insider now anyway.. [link]http://betanews.com/2015/05/11/windows-insiders-will-need-a-valid-license-to-upgrade-to-windows-10-rtm/[/link] * +

Impossible to know at the moment. If it does a scan for the loader then you wont be able to upgrade for free. iirc the loader that is created is somewhat unique, every system has a different .exe, making it harder to detect. It would be quite hard to single out, accurately, PC's with software licensing information written to the BIOS and then compare it to motherboards that shipped from OEM's with SLIC. So BIOS mod with SLIC = Windows seeing your PC as having a genuine license. There will be much more info at release, stuff that can't be discussed here though. * +

It's back on, you will still get a free copy if you use the preview (I think. At the moment. Maybe)
