Windows 10 Problem

Hello. I have Macbook Pro running Parallels v 10.2.2. Right now, I have Windows 7 installed and have reserved a copy of Windows 10. I happened to click on the Get Windows 10 icon on my menu bar and it showed that there is a problem with updating to Windows 10 on this Mac. The error says that 'This PC can't run Windows 10. It doesn't meet system requirements.' Then it says About Your PC. Here's why Windows 10 can't be installed on this PC.
Parallels Display Adapter (WDDM). The display manufacturer hasn't made your display compatible with Windows 10. Check with the manufacturer for support.
Is there a fix for this.

Thanks.
 
I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 10. All appeared well. I was able to log in to Windows 10 and start using it. After logging out and in a couple times, Windows 10 won't fully boot up. I get a large black screen in Parallels where Windows 10 should be. I went to my wife's Mac account and booted Windows 10. It came up successfully. After logging in and out, I get the same black screen as Windows 10 boots up but doesn't finish. The last thing I did in my and my wife's Windows 10 accounts was to set up the Mail app to access our msn.com email accounts. This forced the login password to our Windows 10 account to be the same as our msn.com email passwords. I don't know if this had anything to do with it, but I'm stuck. Anyone else encountered this and worked around it?

I didn't get the symptoms quite right. I can log in once. Then when I log out I can't log in again. After a length of time (unknown), I can log in once then I am locked out from logging in again for some length of time.

I managed to fix this. When I was able to log in, I found how to update Windows 10 and did so. Thereafter, I can log in at will.
