I personally think that PC's in one form or another will not go away for many many years to come. There is something about the PC that makes it very different than many other things out there. The modularity that it allows and the ease of upgradeability is much more cost effective and also...

So far every title I tried works well, UT3, StarCraft II, Wolfenstein(2009), CODWaW, Skyrim, NFSMW, Jedi Academy and The Force Unleashed I and II(in some, the performance is a few frames lower than win7).You may need to install the DirectX 9 SDK's for some to work, but there should not be any...

Just to confirm what you are saying, does Windows 8 boot at all? I mean after the install process, do you get a first boot to see the start, or it reboots after install complete and goes to win 7? Also, did I get it right, are you using two different hard drives? I experienced the dual-boot...

That option can not be implemented, unless Microsoft decides to go and make themselves their own computer brand like apple. The secure boot can be disabled from BIOS, and more so it's very unlikely that microsoft won't allow the installation of one of their own other OS's.

Graphics, Processors and Media Solutions | AMD You should find it here.

If it freezes the mouse the way you've described it, it is probably just a bug. Will be worked out in the final version. Remember this is just a Preview. It's still in heavy development. You won't need complicated command line functions. cp -copy and rm -remove will do. Ex.: cp...

I agree with Trouble. The Metro UI is a very good way of accessing all the apps that were normally in the start menu. All it needs is, as i mentioned in another post, a more proper or thorough control panel to make it more customizable(it wouldn't hurt if they would do a settings panel and make...

The Metro UI is a step in the future, as it is very suited for touch screens, be it on a tablet or a pc. It does need a bit more tinkering with and more settings menus, to be able to get it better customized but it does look nice and usable. In it's current stage it's not yet ready to replace...

Sorry to intrude. You can try to install the win7 drivers for your card. Those should work in win8 as well.Might not install at first, but you can run it in compatibility mode for win 7. As for Linux, I use OpenSUSE. Worked best for me and to me it seems the most complete and stable Linux...

Yes you can. You should find the drivers at Global Provider of Innovative Graphics, Processors and Media Solutions | AMD for win8 preview. If there are not any for that, you can use the win7 drivers. The installer may not work at first. If it doesn't, run it in compatibility mode win7.

I installed in win7 compatibility mode, it's the only way it would install in the first place anyway. While it normally does start up the Xonar DS audio center, I couldn't find it listed in the startup menu or anywhere else for that matter. The audio center isn't working anyway. It can only...

I just installed Windows 8 Consumer Preview, and everything is well, except the sound card. There is no driver for win8 on the manufacturer web page so I installed the win7 one. I get stereo sound in a very basic config from control panel, but the Xonar DS Audio Center does not work, so i can't...
