    Windows 8 Windows 8.1 update solution.

    Found things to be a little buggy. Lost a volume, replaced and reinstalled win8 then tried upgrade to 8.1 (Had this before on this machine) now, it's telling me first to update which I did, still won't install, telling me now the machine is not adequate even though it meets the requirements...

    Windows 8 Stuck at Boot Menu/App Menu.

    It's pretty obvious the HDD isn't there. Something either happened to the volume or it's not connected. You must be able to see your HDD in the setup menu before it can boot from it. I would check the HDD.

    Windows 8 Issues recovering data via SATA USB Wire

    I have had some luck with data retrieval by placing the volume in the freezer for about 1/2 hour or 45 minutes. If this does work you must work diligently as when the drive warms up it stops working again.

    Windows 8 Laptop will not hold a WiFi connection.

    I just thought it might be a good thing to take out of the equation. I'll bet you don't lose the connection when your hardwired.

    Windows 8 Laptop will not hold a WiFi connection.

    Well, there you go. Now try another wireless adapter, you can even leave that one in your machine and disable it through device manager. Borrow one if you can and your troubleshooting will be a lot closer.

    Windows 8 installation problem

    On installations of win 8 as opposed to win 7 I've found that memory is more critical in win 8. Mixed memory is more forgiving in 7 then 8 from what I've found. Try going with the least amount then add it later and see what happens. If case you don't have any luck with the previous recommendations.

    Windows 8 Windows 8 - Installation problem

    Also check what your installing. 32 bit software? 64 bit requires a 64 bit processor. You didn't state what type of PC your using.

    Windows 8 Laptop will not hold a WiFi connection.

    Okay, I've been through this before. I found out it was the wireless card on my HP. I took it out replaced with another new card and it did the same thing. I now have a USB wireless thingy which can be had for about $10.00 if you look hard enough and that ended that. It's not you router, it's...

    Interesting story. Funny....my Son just asked me to build a Lego display case for all his Son's builds. I've seen some of them and I was really impressed. I didn't realize it is still going strong. Thanks for video, enjoyed.

    Windows 8 Can't Connect to Remote SQL Server from Windows 8 PC

    Maybe win 8's firewall is blocking a port not being blocked by 7?

    Windows 8 News from HP!

    It's amazing how these companies will "Pedal Backwards" to improve sales. I think the reason many businesses are not upgrading to 8 is the IT staff isn't there anymore. It takes real people to migrate to a newer OS. I think we've seen the peak with XP. Then though there is the question of...
