Hello all,
We are all aware that Microsoft Windows 8 is one of thebiggest shakeup of their flagship Windows operating system then company hasever made. It’s one of those changes that will either beloved or hated. Lookingthrough the Microsoft Compatibility Centre, there aren’t enough people givingfeedback to Microsoft. 1 – 4 aren’t enough. The more people giving positive feedbackto Microsoft the better this will be for other users to use as a referenceguide.
Therefore, my I make a valid suggestion. If you’re betatesting or just using Windows 8 RP then log in with your Microsoft Windows LiveID and give Microsoft feedback on drivers, software, hardware, whatever areinstalling. For example, your motherboard drivers (if you have done a freshinstall) you managed to install all of your drivers with no issues. Logon andtell others they work.
Thanks
