There was just a quite emotional thread on the freebsd mailinglist about win10 killing all OS on the disk - happened with the latest update to 2004 (?) IMO. That thing changed the partitioning scheme and introduced a 500MB partition for the m$ bootloader, killing everything in its way. Anyway, my prefered way is to do a 1:1 copy of the origila hd - or rip the disk and put is on the shelf. Then go Linux/BSD only and run M$ from qemu/virtualbox.
