That's good news. In my case, I never did figure out whether this functionality was working or not when I purchased the laptop or whether it was crippled when I upgraded to 8.1. I was just so pleased to get it working I just moved on :)

I had success as follows - you may want to give this a try: Make sure you have the latest drivers for both graphics cards installed - Windows Update should take care of that. Check for the ccc2_install.exe object on your system - I found it at location c:\Programs...

Did you run the Upgrade Assistant? - check the FAQ here:

Great find A Guy - thanks.

I read that Lenovo record sales story the other day with interest. I didn't see any reference as to what markets they sold them into nor what OS they were selling those systems with. Just curious is all.

It sounds very similar to this problem reported over at the HP Forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video-e-g/F2-and-F3-Brightness-Keys-Not-Working-on-DM4-3050US-Laptop/td-p/147628 It looks like something HP have yet to fix, but read through the thread right to the end...

Here is another thread that may be a helpful starter.. http://www.eightforums.com/graphic-cards/9373-ati-mobility-radeon-x1400-dell-inspiron-9400-windows-8-x64.html

Follow this lead and see if there is an option there for your card (I haven't tried it myself but seems to have worked for others). ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics card Windows 8 driver missing 1680x1050 for ATI mobility chipsets can be achieved but it requires a bit of patience and...

Amazing :shock: Ok, good luck. Hope someone here on the forum can guide you through getting those vista drivers installed.

Not a direct answer to your question but the Epson site says drivers for Win 8 64-bit drivers can be expected soon. they also state in the meantime to use the Win 7 driver and state how to install it. Apparently the Win 8 fault USB driver needs to be uninstalled first. Check it out and see if it...

Keen to hear what significant differences you noticed bassfisher6522? must admit I'm still trying to get my head around it all but other than a lot more apps in the store, I haven't noticed much difference. Sounds like there is some good stuff I have yet to stumble across.

Great news ! The people from Epson who responded clearly didn't even bother to investigate. Kind regards.

Hi MaryB, From this site it looks like they are indeed available: https://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?oid=30501&infoType=Downloads&platform=OSF_W_8-32 Try it and please be sure to post back with your results.

Odd indeed but may come with time. Great to hear you are up and running!

Hi chis1neji. I use a variety of products, as I have to support a small and varied client base. For my own systems I am a long time happy user of Acronis True Image and will likely stick with that for Win 8. Paragon Software Group put out free versions eg. Backup & Recovery 10.x that do the...

Token Ring! Wow, that takes me back a few years. What you are seeing is the same over here. Lack of Win 8 customers in the stores and the staff have had a brief intro to it all from Microsoft but very limited knowledge let alone stock. Thank goodness for resources like this forum otherwise...

That's good news! Pretty sure I read somewhere that some users have successfully installed the Vista printer driver package under Win 8 and got it up and running. if that's the case, then the Win 7 drivers should also work. Regards.

Win 8 Pro is the only boxed version most are seeing on the shelves for sale. Enterprise version I understand is only available through volume licensing and I could be wrong but believe that Windows 8 (Standard?) seems to be the OEM version installed on new lower end PC's. I have no idea how you...

I had a quick look at the web app feature (Office 2013) available via skydrive and for simple spreadsheets it looks like it could well do the job. But be aware that if you are using an existing book created in the desktop office application and use advanced functionality - macros, hyperlinks...

Mine just came through! About 24 hours it took.
