I register only so I can add my 2 cent about this DMCA take down nonsense.

1-I hope someone will sue the $hit out of Micro$oft for perverting the DMCA in a weapon to impose dictatorial censorship.

2- Windows 8 WILL so badly, epically and miserably fail on desktop in general, and in the corporate sector specifically, that it will most certainly be fatal to Micro$oft. OK, not fatal, but very debilitating.

3- Metro interface on desktop is a fcking plague. A disease. An affliction. A cancer. A motherfcking virulent and purulent infection. Something that need to amputated. To be disinfected. To be incinerated. To be eradicated.

PS: F*UCK YOU, Micro$oft.
PS2: SUE ME!!!

I cant believe that Microsoft has filled an DMCA notice to google to remove this thread from google search… I would guess official reason is Metro screenshot and real one is that few people expressed negativity about Metro… that is so freaking strange.

Hi Guys,

NGOHQ.com also received a DMCA takedown notice from Microsoft (to Google) for hosting Windows 8 RTM screenshots. Our forum users (including myself) also criticized Metro (or modern UI or whatever they call it now).

NGOHQ.com has a very healthy attitude to this type of thing. nVidia tried this on with them a while back. Luckily, Israeli law prevails. Tain gaz!

and who knows how many did that dont use Google’s webmasters tool and never actually saw the notice or knew about it.

wouldnt be a lot easier for MS to fix those problems that people are referring to?

Wait a minute…. I just realized I didn’t post any screen shots of win8 rtm or am I losing my mind? I remember posting some elsewhere but not here.

Cool… I think I’m done with MS, if I can’t discuss new software openly, technet is useless. So when they call next year to renew my subscription, I’ll refuse with a quote from Ramon Zarat! :D

Oh yea, now I remember. But wait a minute I got the info here, a blog written by Brandon LeBlanc. So yea, now it make perfect sense. :rolleyes:

it is official image from press kit, so of course there is no reason for takedown except to remove negative comments from google search engine…

Just found out this forum is finally getting the attention it deserves.

But getting back on topic. I installed w8 rtm on a new sdd. It now twice as fast as my win7 was. With a cold boot i’m in windows in 6 seconds.

I can pause my copy actions. USB3 is supported out of the box. I do like the start screen but it takes a few hours to get used to.

The only thing is that ms have to make it a little better when using the mouse. But thats it.

New Win8 desktop theme sure looks depressing though, all those gray windows… while on the other hand Metro is so flashy.

Did you like Aero better or Win8 gray?

[guido]

Aero does look at bit flashier.

But it’s not bothering me. It sometimes looks even better. Firefox for instance.

i am running it in VM and it still looks to me like I have disabled hardware acceleration :-).

[guido]

It does look a bit like that :)

But how is your performance?

[spwolf]

@guido:

its VM, so I dont know… also, my Win7 is always fast when I just install it,but it degrades in performance when many programs are installed after months of usage… I doubt Win8 is very different?

Win 8 uses hibernation out of the box by default. You may not have known this as MSoft have stopped calling it that. It is dangerous and causes disk corruption if one multi-boots as can regular hibernation.

"Based on a number of reports, a quick search of the Microsoft forums, and testing, it’s clear that Win8’s new gimmick, called Fast Startup (hibernate on shutdown), is causing disk corruption. This occurs when partitions visible to Win8 are modified after shutdown (doesn’t affect reboot). It appears that Windows does not clear its cache and remount file systems after resuming from hibernation. This “feature” is enabled in Win8 by default. We highly recommend you disable this new feature to prevent corruption to your partitions. Fast Startup can be disabled using BootIt BM 1.10 or higher via properties of the Win8 partition in Partition Work. You can also enable or disable this option in Win8:

1. Open Control Panel.
2. Choose Hardware and Sound -> Power Options
3. Click on “Choose what the power button does” on left.
4. Click on “Change settings that are currently unavailable”.
5. Remove the check mark from the “Turn on fast startup (recommended)” under Shutdown settings.

Until Microsoft changes the default, ensure you have a good current image of all your partitions before installing W8".

The above quote is from the Terabyte Unlimited support forums.

Turn off the feature and check your slower boot times.

I changed it thanks. A well this is the price you pay for being one of the first.

I reboot my pc once a month…

Guido,

Glad to help. It is a real problem for me here as I have one driver dedicated to OSs (seven at last count) and my data partitions are visible to all OSs.

Good name, my real name is the English version.
