Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

Just finished my fresh install from a retail disc :)

Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

Did anyone get the Media Centre thing working - I have still not had a key emailed to me.

Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

Nope, I signed up to it when it was posted on here. Can anyone actually open any tiles without them going straight back to the start screen?

Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

I'm still waiting on my key, perhaps they have a big backlog and are struggling to cope?

Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

Yup all my tiles work fine. Some are not compatible with windows narrator but I expected that. They still work but the PC says 'This tile is incompatible with accessibility'

Re: [MERGED] Windows 8 discussion
 

Mods is it time to open a compatibility thread or do we continue with this thread?

ISO mounting . The minute you install something that can mount an ISO you lose the Mount option in explorer so once you are fully installed right click an ISO select properties click change to open with and select windows explorer. Right click then gives you mount back as an option as well as open with for your burning
