Windows 8 Trouble doing a clean install of Windows 8.1 with ISO Disc
Hello there, I have a Lenovo G50-45 and I recently did a clean install of Windows 8.1 (32-bit). Had a lot of trouble tracking down all the drivers, since I discovered most driver compatibility was for the 64-bit of Windows 8.1. Now I am trying to do a new clean install of Windows 8.1 64-bit...- Keith Kayrungrang
