Is this to me? I didn't think I said anything rude? Rod

Exactly Rod

That is odd. I have installed it on several pc's, from the release previews to the final release. My pc's are older than yours, wolfdale chips with 4 gigs of ram. I have no problems at all. I even installed it on my wife's pc, and she is not a strong pc user. She picked it up in a couple of...

Well, I am just trying to learn what exactly I am dealing with; I am not certain what will work. Doing the system restore is fine, doing a reinstall is fine. I did not know that the dvd allowed me to do a full reinstall. That is a bit curious, don't you think? Why sell the full version and the...

It appears that your files are no longer available on mediafire. Rod

Here is what happened, the full story. I purchased the Win8 upgrade CD from a local Microcenter. Since they had the disks for $40 I figured it was a great deal and better than doing the online upgrade, as I would have the DVD. My wife's computer is identical to mine. I built them both from...

This is what my disk management shows. The C and D drives are my Win 8 and Win 7 partitions. E and F are a separate drive. What is the best way to be sure? Thanks, Rod

So, I cannot do it with the built in system image feature. That implies that there is another way to do it? Perhaps a free way to do it? Thanks, Rod

I am dual-booting Win7 and Win8. From within Win8 I am trying to do a system backup of just my Win8 system. However, it won't let me chose just the Win8 partition. Is there any way to do this? Thanks, Rod

I just tried this and it worked! Thanks!

I am trying to connect Outlook to an Exchange server. My friend has a business hosting exchange and websites and he runs the Exchange server that I use. However, I get this error message upon trying to connect: There is a problem with the proxy server's security certificate. The name on the...

I just rebooted into my Win 8 Consumer evaluation OS and did the upgrade assistant. Surprisingly, it worked just fine. It even seemed to let me order the $39.99 upgrade. Is this right? I have been holding off because a local store is selling the box edition for the same $39.99 price and I...

Any idea as to what I can do? Rod

I am running Win 7 and trying to update it. Rod

So I go to the Microsoft site, run the upgrade adviser and it tells me my PC is compatible (which I knew already) So I hit continue, and I get the message "Windows 8 isn't available for Download Sorry, Windows 8 isn't available for online instal in the country/region you are in". Houston...

Newegg is running a promo where the Win8 system builder is $69.99 and the Win8 system builder is $109. Rod

Just FYI for anyone interested: NewEgg has a promo for Win8 with $69.99 for the Full OEM version and $109.99 for Win8 Pro. Not the upgrades, the full version.

I cannot help you, but I do have to ask: Where did you buy Win 8? Rod

Yeah, I think that is what I will end up doing. Rod

Thinking more about it, does anyone know if the Windows 8 Upgrade Adviser will tell you if your version of Windows is legit? If the Win XP from Toshiba is not accepted, will it tell me before I spend the $40?
