Hi,

can you post a little about your install please. Did you upgrade or perform a clean install or did Windows 8 come pre installed? Do you sign into Windows using a Microsoft account or just a local one as this can make a difference to some functionality.
Are you running with all the latest updates for Windows and drivers?

Which Tiles do you refer to you? Plus is your install synced using a Microsoft account as this can effect functionality.
