In Windows 8 are you linked to a Microsoft account? If you want a seemless experience you need to use the same Microsoft account across all your devices.

yes i know, xbox is saying i cant use my live.com account because it is all ready being used by someone else, how can that be.

can an xbox account and windows 8 account login be the same, a different person each using one of the accounts
