Been a long time lurker over on Seven forums and have just installed Windows 8 Pro x64 on my Windows 7 machine. Also installed Windows 8 on my work machine. Excited to learn all the inside and out tricks.
Welcome to EightForums sense1707.
I hope you enjoy the forum and the 8 experience as much as most of us do here.

I've just joined up and all looks good.
I've also created a small Windows 8 section on my Youtube Channel. Check it out and let me know what you all think?

How ya doin guys n gals? Fresh one here, but an old voice from SF, I'm Uber Philf over there (the accounts been gathering dust, i know). Just recently made the switch to 8 to see what the go is. Not many people liking it, but i thought id have a go, seeing as my W7 install hadn't been formatted for over 2 years now. Been fiddling with things here and there, and have come across my first problem. Hopefully someone's got an answer for me
See you around peeps!
