My suggestion to you CaseyBaker is this, don’t do an UPGRADE to Win-10 from Win-8.1, backup all your personal files from your old Windows 8.1 then do a "Clean Install of Win-10" with a complete format of the hard drive and use this Download tool now < from this link and then “Create Windows 10 installation” with the "MediaCreationTool20H2" to a USB (do this setup Windows installation USB with your existing Win-8.1 OS on your Aspire ES1-711 so that it will setup the appropriate bios settings for your USB Windows installation USB) and once in the Win-10 installation insert the Win-8.1 key (yes the key will work and will register your new Win-10, if you have a Win-8.1 key then you will be updated to Win-10 Pro) then, let Microsoft reference the key to their registration of your account so that it will give you a “Windows is activated with a digital license linked to your Microsoft account’ (see caption below as that registration was done from a laptop with Win-8.1 to Win-10 Pro) also, go to this link “Activate Windows 10” to learn more of how to and what do do, so that you will be registered.

Also, I suggest that you ugrade the ram to max 8GB for your ES1-711, that can take a max of 8GB into its 1 slot (1 bank of 1) for ram, it can take a 1x 8GB DDR3L-1600 SODIMM or even DDR3-1800MHz type ram and also I would recommend upgrading to a 2.5” SSD hard drive of SATA-3 6GB/sec as that is essential  if you haven't got one. Btw, the ES1-711 has a chipset of the Intel N & J type.

With the bios, I would update the bios once Win-10 is installed and up to date to the last Aspire ES1-711 bios version: 1.08 dated 2016/02/03, be careful when updating bios. After the bios update you can do the Intel graphics update and all the Acer obsolete drivers that Win-10 hasn’t updated for the ES1-711 from the Acer Support page. Note:  take all appropriate precautions as “Upgrading your system BIOS incorrectly could harm your Acer product. Please proceed with caution” and never have a power outage, don't run any software while you do a bios update, disable anti virus also.
