Is the core 2 duo e8400 processor compatible with Windows 10?

The wizard the MS download onto a workstation indicates it is not compatible. I am presently run 8.1 64bit perfectly.

HelloJohnfpro,

In this particular situation, I would recommend to confirm with the computer manufacturer if it is compatible with Windows* 10.

In regards to your processor, please check the following website:http://www.intel.com/support/processors/sb/CS-035705.htm Processors — Intel® Processor Support for Windows® 10

According to Microsoft, all Intel® Processors from 1 Gigahertz and faster will support Microsoft Windows® 10.

However, compatibility with Windows* 10 is not only determined by the Processor itself. There are other components to take into consideration, like the system BIOS, Graphics, Network Cards, etc.

Get Windows*10 is an application designed by Microsoft that will check to tell you if your system, including the Intel® Processor, is compatible with Windows*10.
