Does not matter to me now as i have a key for windows 7 ultimate and windows 8 can join windows ME and Vista as crap versions of windows. It cost me £15.00 or so to find out but i can spend more than that at the pub.

I accept your view and respect your choice and would not try to change your mind however video wallpapers do apparently work on windows 8 and the feature is only hidden. I would guess most of what you had working would work but you are happy with 7 and fair play

oh btw dreamscene was a vista app and not native to 7 either hidden the same way as it is in 8

I think I best point out that I by no means champion M$ I hate the company same as I hate Apple for how they treat the industry however I never view new operating systems blinkered and I spend a lot of time ( which I know a lot of people do not have) in learning my way around. If I have an issue I research it and try to find a way around it. I used to slag Linux off until I spent a lot of time working with it
This is why I got on well with Vista I installed enough memory and optimized the OS so you didnt tend to hear me complain about. Same with Windows 8 I spent time at the start learning my way around it so I could support customers.
