I recommend downloading Windows 10 first.

rip his sanity :^)

but on a serious note, if he's already using windows 7/8.1, he should wait until service pack 1 or this major update comes out to jump onto MSX

when is the service pack 1 update ?

 

It should be just fine with the stock drivers (ones that are already on Windows)

You shouldn't have to reinstall Windows and yes it should update from Windows Update.
