Steve Butters Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Motocat, I was under the impression this was only if you have a Windows account tied to it... If you don't log in with a Windows account then there shouldn't issues... Is that not correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I clicked the icon and it said I was put on a waiting list...Maybe they're rolling it out by region? Wouldn't let me download right away I signed up a day or 2 before release on my desktop, didn't get it until a few days after. Signed up on release day with a laptop and got it the very next day. I think it's kinda random. Motocat, I was under the impression this was only if you have a Windows account tied to it... If you don't log in with a Windows account then there shouldn't issues... Is that not correct? I don't think so. But you can opt out of a lot of it during the setup, first run part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelS Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 So far I have been using it on my laptop that came with the craptastic windows 8. I still prefer 7 on my other computers and don't think I will be upgrading those, even for free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 I think you'll be fine, Jinu. Why the hell you're still on WS2008 is a bit concerning though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue03636 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Just upgraded my work computer as I get to play test mule and make sure everything works. Went really well, all of our software works fine and just had to download a few drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all I need to have all of my computers upgraded and working properly. (Hint: it doesn't exist, just looking for a workaround!)

That worked! All is good in the hood! I got the minor touchpad issue taken care of by installing an older version of that as well. It's looking like the old laptop is well...OLD! LOL It came with Vista on it, as it was before 7 was even in CTP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL It came with Vista on it, as it was before 7 was even in CTP.I know how you feel, I had some old machines that ran xp and I installed 7 on them. They struggle. It's amazing how much the technology changes in a few short years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motocat12 Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Win10 now without out-of-the-box dvd support.Back to VLC again until I remember why I stopped using it before. That said I won't miss Win7 media player changing to the tracklist during a movie anytime I plug a usb device in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
