I am running PD10.2.2, win7 on an 2013 iMac with os 10.10.5. when I try to update to windows 10, I get a message that my display is not compatible. According to Windows device manager, my display driver is dated 7/14/15, version 10.2.29105.0.

Is this my issue or do I truly have an issue with my iMac display? If the former, what can I do?

Thanks
 
Download ISO for Windows 10.
Mount it as a CD in your Win7 guest. And start the Win7 guest.
In the Win7 guest, open the "CD" and run the installer file "setup.exe"
 
DerzuO - See post # 2. I ran into this same issue, after a lot of searching and trying things it boiled down to those simple steps. You should be able to Google each step to find out how to complete it.

Also, if you can, I recommend resetting windows 10 to factory defaults after upgrade.
My Windows 10 had a couple of issues coming from Win7 Ultimate. A reset fixed all of the issues.

Yes, followed that link which had errors, followed several more links, more errors.... In the end, post #2 is the distillation for what worked for me... And it happens to be Microsoft's standard (old school) upgrade procedure.
