Allready done that, i can see my wirelles device but can't install the driver..that method is not confirmed in final version of windows 8..
UP ....nobody?
Well..i got it working..my mastake was that i upgraded from windows 7 and not doing a fresh install of windows 8...
Almost have it working, but whenever i reboot, i need to delete my wifi and readd it and it will work (pain, but im starting to like the windows 8 on this compared to windows 7).

I got the patches from post #64. You need to boot windows 8 into command line to copy these files. It was the only way I could get them copied anyway (forgot which file it was, but one would not copy unless I did it from the command line).
ok, just need to disable it then enable it and it works...
install win 7 or 8
Hi, I have big problem to install w7 or w8 on shift. I replaced hdd by runecore ssd and when try to install from usb stick, it gives me error after partitioning. I can create ntfs partition. Only under linux, but windows dont work with that. Is there some dos partition utility?
before i buy the key and install windows 8, i want to know if the drivers that came with the PC will get transferred to windows 8 or am i going to have to re install them again? i had driver issues with a clean install with the dev, release preview and rtm. they didnt install and i had to stick with the default windows ones which nerfs my PC to the max. i have a Dell Inspiron One 2305 with the AMD drivers and stuff. so i want to know if all the drivers will be transfered over before i buy windows 8 and upgrade it.

The rtm build is exactly the same as the final version that you'll be buying so it's possible that you'll have problems, but if the Dell came with Windows 7 you shouldn't have trouble with Drivers apart for certain Printers, which I've found out today.
As when I came to install my Canon Pixima MP140 Windows insists that the Windows 8 driver downloaded from Canon isn't compatible with Windows 8.

How long ago did you do the rtm install? Though you may need new drivers its worth a note that amd normally update there drivers monthly. When RTM came out for instance it was a real pain to get catalyst to install and you had to install the driver with device manager then install catalyst after etc but now they have full windows 8 support.
I don't have the link to hand but ms do have a tool that you can use that will check your system for compatibility.
And they did quite a large update about 2 weeks ago that addressed driver compatibility issues I cant say if this will address your specific issues but I know its made a huge diff to some.
I installed it when it came out and I still have a partition with windows 8 for testing purposes. I can't find the drivers for it for some reason though, only the windows 7 64 bit drivers are shown in the list and not win8 that's what is keeping me from upgrading

before u start u have this upgrade assistant. he will tell u about drivers. what will go what wont and what u will need to re install.
it said i have to reinstall them but the thing is that i looked for the windows 8 drivers and i found nothing for my device, it just gives me drivers for newer cards and old win 7 ones
when you upgrade to windows 8 it will ask you if you want to keep everything including drivers,apps,ext.

1. Fresh install, preferably dual boot Windows 7
2. Before installing Windows 8, create a new partition for data, and an extra partition for Windows 8, so you can dual boot and access data from both os.
3. You won't need mobo drivers, at least I didn't.
4. Boot method
5. Download the Windows 7 USB tool from the Microsoft site, use that to create a bootable USB.

So windows 8.1 has rolled out, I read from windows page that once we upgraded from windows 8 to 8.1, all windows apps have to be re-install. So does this mean those apps have to be re-download? Or windows 8 leaves those .appx somewhere and it can be install without having to download again? I have a couple of apps which is over 1GB on my laptop and to re-download all those files is a pain... Thanks for your reply.
I Can't upgrade from windows 10 home to pro of a bootable USB. even if I write the PID.txt with the command in it and in sources. Some can help me install window 10 pro om my hp laptop within the settings activation?

You can use installation media (a USB flash drive or DVD) to install a new copy of Windows, perform a clean installation, or reinstall Windows 10.
After you've created the installation media, you can reset or reinstall Windows. To learn more, go to Recovery options in Windows 10.

Windows S mode is locked in BIOS i think. I create new USB, remove all partition, create, new, format whole disk and after fresh install I have again Windows Home with S mode. Last time I had to unlock bios to perform install Windows pro.
Another method is download iso, extract it, remove Windows home image and pack it again, create USB and fresh install.
It worked few year ago and I believe it will work now.
Edit: Removing other Windows image from installaction doesn't work.
Edit 2: I don't remember how to mod and unlock bios. But after few full clean reinstalls I break S mode without ms login. Next I upgraded OS version with change product key (from ebay). I'm not sure it's the right way for my pcs, but it's enough for my clients. I think the only right way is mod bios and unlock slic.
