I will say, missing or writing the rest of an OS because of a certain Start screen is somewhere between sad & silly. Making an big issue, fuss & blockage over a Start screen, that not only doesn't need to be used (There IS choice) but, gets in the way of nothing, hardly makes grounded sense...

Hello. I have two Planar touchscreen monitors. Only the primary monitor responds to touch. The secondary monitor only responds to the mouse. If I switch which monitor is primary, that monitor responds to touch and the other one will only respond to the mouse. So, the issue is that only the...

If you are moving your finger at 1 meter per second on an average 100 millisecond touch screen, your object will eventually become about 10 centimeters behind. At Microsoft Research, they have been trying to decrease the latency associated with touch screens. Albert Ng and Paul Dietz of the...

I have reserved a great deal of time not passing judgement on Windows 8, but so far I am not as enthused as, perhaps, I should be. This is not to say that I have given up on Windows 8, but for me, the Consumer Preview just isn't doing it. The main problem, of course, for me, and I suspect many...

In constructing images for an industrial touch screen PC, I have noticed that the OSK (On Screen Keyboard) shows up during the OOBE (Out of Box Experience) on the English image, and the German Image. I specifically enabled this for the logon screen and was surprised to see it during the OOBE...

Yes that is correct..Build 7100 that I made to function without the two hour shutdown and Aero is still fully active. not giving away my...

Windows XP came out in October of 2001. Vista came out in January of 2007. 7 came out in November of 2009. If windows 7 is supposed to be the greatest thing on Earth, why is Windows 8 coming out already? I realize that there was only a 6 year delay between XP and Vista, and understandably only a...

I am working on a Dell Inspiron 2205 all in one touch screen running Win 7 home premium 64 bit with 4 gb ram and 500 gb hd. The original problem was lock ups on an irregular basis. Of course I eliminated virus and malware infection. I ran several diagnostic programs including memtest and PCcheck...

When I first started using this great little tool, it worked perfectly. :pI don't know why it has changed as things change and update daily, so I could not identify a time frame for the problem, and it seems intermittent. The problem is when I start to drag the frame, it immediately crops...

A fundamental question: how to quit a program in the Metro. I miss the X in the upper right corner. PS: Windows 8 on a laptop without a touchscreen!

Short version: It sucks. Let's hope it gets better. Fast. Long version: The first official public iteration of Microsoft Windows 8 leaves much to offer. The nagging Smart Screen UI (MetroUI) was added for developers at the BUILD conference running in Anaheim, CA right now. The build lacks...
