At the invitation of Microsoft store I attempted an upgrade from Win 8.0 to 8.1 on a new (2 month old) envy laptop. The upgrade demolished my system. The system was so scrambled that the only option was a rebuild from the hp supplied recovery disks. A more pressing concern is what to do when the 8.1 upgrade re-arrives. I really don't want to go through the disaster recovery scenario again. There must an incompatibility between the laptop and 8.1 and I would like to find out how to detect it (and therefore do something about it) before letting the upgrade re-apply.
