Setup Installation :: Windows 8.1 / Linux Zorin 8 On Lenovo Desktop - Dual Boot Not Happening
Mar 20, 2014I tried to set up a dual boot, Windows 8.1 and Linux Zorin 8 on a new Lenovo desktop. I setup the partition first in Windows and then loaded Zorin per the instructions here: [URL].....
Everything seemed to go OK but in the end I didn't end up with the grub boot loader, so I can only boot into Windows. Now I ended up loosing 20% of my hard drive which is now unallocated space that I can't figure out how to reclaim into my hard drive. I tried deleting the partition but it's still there and there was no option to expand volume.
Debugging :: Random BSOD Happening For A While IRQL
Jun 6, 2014I've been getting these random BSOD for a while.
System specs:
Processor AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ 3.00 Ghz
Ram 3gb
32 bit Operating System
Debugging :: Random BSOD Happening For Some Time Now
Jul 16, 2014I'm having BSOD for a few months now. It all started while I still had Windows 7 installed and by that time I did full RAM testing without ever accusing flaws. A month ago I did a clean format of my Disk and installed Windows 8.1 Pro with hopes that things would be better but they aren't.
I've had 6 BSOD since last month, with the first being after 1-2 days after installation (I had hardly anything installed), they all reported different messages and between them I reinstalled drivers with no success at ending them. In addition, all BSOD happened while doing different things or doing nothing (AFK).
If you want any further details besides the zip files attached feel free to ask. ( I inserted both OPTIONS zip files - JLReis.zip (OPTION 1), SFdebugFiles-JL-PC (OPTION 2)).
Downloading 8.1 ISO With Windows 8.0 Key?
Sep 15, 2014I am looking to download an ISO of Windows 8.1 so that, in the future, I do not have to go through the process of first installing Windows 8.0 and then downloading Windows 8.1 and installing it.
I have found pages on the web dated around April 2014 that describe a process that involves beginning the download for Windows 8.0 ISO, canceling the download after it starts, and then attempting to download Windows 8.1. However, it appears that Microsoft has nullified this trick by since requiring that you put in your Windows 8.1 key when attempting to download the Windows 8.1 ISO.

Apr 15, 2014I am having a problem updating one of my machines (KMS activated Pro Windows 8 VL) to Windows 8.1.
I cannot update from the store (as expected) and trying to update from any iso I have, it wants to remove everything except my documents. I would ultimately like to update this machine to 8.1 update 1 without reinstall if at all possible.
Is there a standalone installer for going 8 >> 8.1?

Sep 15, 2014Right now, if I rename a file in windows explorer, or right click->create new folder (or new file), or do a bunch of other things, I don't see the result of the action (i.e., the file's name stays the same, or the new folder/file doesn't appear) until I click away to another folder, and then back to the one I did the action in.
Why is this happening, and how can I fix it? I haven't explicitly changed anything recently, though maybe an update broke something.
I am using Windows 8.
Downloading Win 8 Installation ISO

Oct 22, 2013I've been trying to update to Windows 8.1 but I keep having issues. I constantly have failing Windows Updates. I have tried a couple different things, renaming the SoftwareDistribution file to .old, Windows Repair, and full clean install of Windows 8. I for the life of me can't figure out what's going on.
Currently, I am unable to install the SF_Diagnostic tool for some reason. It's hung up on downloading the necessary files from Windows Features. I have a mini dump from Windows 8 attached and will try to update it with the SF_Diag tool if it ever installs.
Edit: had to manually enable .NET Framework in order to get the diagnostic tool to install. The mini dump is still the same regardless so I'll keep that there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhy Windows 8 Explorer Not Updating Files
Dec 15, 2012I just got a Dell Inspiron with Windows8 to replace my old XP system. Got files and software loaded, everything working. I code indicators and robots for forex trading and use the built-in editor (Meta-Editor) and it is working fine. I can call up the indicators and robots through the editor and re-edit or run them--no problem.
Then I went over to the File Explorer to move some of the indicator files around and -- weird! They are not there. All the previous files I loaded in earlier are there but since about the 1st of December, none of the files are there.
The folders and subfolders all work correctly in Editor but none of the newer ones are showing up on Explorer--I can build new folders in Explorer and they show up in Editor but whatever i build in Editor does not show up in Explorer--why could that be happening?

Downloading ISO With Only Product Key / Is It 8.1 With Update
Jul 15, 2014a friend just asked me if he will get the standard retail ISO of Windows 8.1 with Update if uses his Windows 8.1 product key to start the "Upgrade with product key only".
And I didn't know what to answer him, I'm pretty sure you get a standard image that you can use not only to upgrade but to install Windows anew doing that; but I don't know if it'll be the one with spring's update.

Sep 10, 2013I have a machine that has an activated retail windows 8 that came from the upgrade offer.
I just downloaded the 8.1 RTM from technet and burned the ISO install media to a DVD.
Will it work to upgrade the retail windows 8 with the RTM DVD by simply doing a setup.exe from within windows 8?
Will it retain the original permanent retail key after the upgrade?
Also, I'm assuming that any additional changes to the 8.1 will come through online updates so it will get caught up to whatever is released to the general public?

Windows 8 - Merging Unnecessary Partitions And Updating OEM
May 22, 2014I have a notebook with windows 8 OEM. In the past I have experimented with dual-booting other OSs, then deleting them and now I have a few extra partitions in my drive. I was wondering if this community could tell me what partitions are safe to merge to my "working" volume (C: or E: ). I have some screenshots of Disk Management and Disk Internals Linux Reader windows. I think there's a better way of showing You the contents of my volumes, but I don't know what program to use.

I also have a few questions: Is my windows 8 OEM inside my hard drive? For example, if I format my whole hard disk completely, would I lose the OEM?
Can I replace my windows 8 OEM with windows 8.1 OEM or even with custom windows 8.1 OEM (for example: fully updated one, if it's possible)?
Downloading Word Documents From Emails?
Apr 8, 2013The first time I tried to download a word document from an email, a message came up asking how I wanted to download documents and I accidentally chose to open it in Internet Explorer. Now every time I try to download a word document from emails of any source (college site, work site, personal email) I get a message that Internet Explorer is not responding and the email never downloads.
I don't want to download the the files into Internet Explorer (even if that did work). I often need to edit these documents or work as a collaborative group on online assignments. Now I cannot even access them

View 1 Replies View RelatedDownloading - Invalid / Corrupt Signature
Nov 20, 2012So, I've just bought a new laptop for university work and it came with Windows 8 pre-installed.
First thing I did when I booted the laptop up was install Microsoft Word and Norton Security, all fine so far!
And then it comes to downloading iTunes, latest Adobe Flashplayer/PDF reader etc and everytime it will get close to finishing. Around 98% or so, before stopping and saying 'The file download was interrupted'. So I press resume download and it comes up with another error message of 'The signature is invalid or corrupt'. I literally can't download a thing?
Also, I can't play youtube videos either. All I get is the 'buffering' circle, a black screen and a greyed out play button!
