[MENTION=37884]champion7891[/MENTION]! I forgot to mention that "EZ Activator" is just a simple "on click" method to activate your windows. But it employs the exact same method of activation as KMSPico i.e. using KMS Activation.

Anyone getting super weird glitches on firefox in windows 8 ? I'm really super tired . Usually its on PG ,like half of the screen goes blank from the middle . The desktop I have is running on 7 nd firefox runs without any issues on it .
My brother had some similar issues a while back on win 8 , after upgrading to 8.1 pro had no more issues and also noticed that performance of chrome was slightly better....
I'll reinstall firefox to see if it solves it . It's been really bothering me .
Hi, just to reiterate. I am facing heavy slowdown problems with my fresh Win 8.1 Update 1 installation on My 3rd gen Core i 5 laptop with 5400 rpm HD, 4 GB RAM.
The boot up process is atrocious. And when the account is logged in, I can't do anything for a couple of minutes as disk usage is at 100%. Closing the lid and then resuming takes as much time as a restart/fresh boot even though in power options the lid functionality is set to sleep.
Can anyone help me?

[MENTION=37884]champion7891[/MENTION]! Your HDD is at fault. Better get yourself a cheap SSD. Look in the PG Marketplace. Someone is selling 60GB SSDs at very cheap rates.
No, this never happened before on Win 8 Pro.
At the most, wake from sleep took 15s with Win 8, now its taking 2 mins!. This is not a HDD problem.
Hm.
1. Rebuild your Index. (Go to control panel for Indexing Services)
2. Clean your C Drive for any leftovers from the update. Either do it from C: drive's properties, or use CCleaner.
Guys, I'm using Windows 8 with StartIsBack.
Would upgrading to 8.1 be possible? (this is the Enterprise Edition)
Are there any major benefits? Any improvements in boot speed? Right now, a cold boot takes around 9-10 seconds.

You can upgrade. And yes there are many minor improvements (and some major, mostly related to "Metro/Modern" area). Preferable to upgrade.

It's worth it IMO but you'll still have to install StartIsBack or similar program if you're used to it.
Update 2 due in few days, nothing major expected but still.

Just updated from Windows 7 to windows 8.1 on my gaming rig.Had windows 8.1 and was satisfied with it however the experience is even better on desktop somehow (I believe its because of the mouse ) and currently I'm using internet explorer although firefox is on download and to be fairly honest internet explorer has vastly improved.Anyone still thinking that it's slow etc need to give that stereotype up now .The scrolling animation is great.The time to open a new tab is just remarkably fast and it's really satisfying.The fact that unlike google chrome and firefox,it has a lot of space on the screen is a great +1 too.Besides that,I tried my hands on the windows appstore as well for first time.Downloaded a music app I use on my phone which allows me to download English songs however the app lacks several options (even playlists,sort etc) but still is really good I believe.
I was sort of surprised when I had the same wallpaper from my laptop on my desktop when the windows first booted up and was sort of amazed by it .

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.
-
XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

XPremiuM:
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
