I recently upgraded to windows 8 pro from my windows 7 machine. I chose the "keep files and settings" upgrade option .
There is a problem with extremely slow web browsing ( must be the computer as other devices are fine on the same net ) and launching games (errors occur ).
I figured maybe it would be easier to do a clean install of windows 8 as I have spent a couple of days updating drivers , deleting various applications that may be problematic to windows 8 but there is no luck .
Can I just run the upgrade assistant application I got with purchasing win 8 and clean install it OVER the already installed win 8 ( same product )?
Can the clean install be done from a external HDD or does it have to be a flash drive ? I dont have a 32 gb flashdrive.
