yes, I always run with UAC on (highest slider level). With the parameter, I can see the cmd Window of the loader and that it installed the hook. When I now try to enable the Vmware GPU again in device manager I get the blackscreen
I use the same vmware version and yes, I see the dialog. After clicking ok, I get the blackscreen. But I've check my DWM.exe and I can see that it already had an update to version 6.2.9200.16420. Do you use the vanilla RTM without any updates?
for me it doesn't work under VMware. The screen gets black after starting the launcher. I think is it related to the RP Theme which I'm using in the RTM. // edit also doesn't work with the RTM theme. This time I also got a blackscreen and 1s later I'm at the login screen. There is no log file created.
you still have a lot of UNKNOWN calls. This is still dynamic code. It looks like you have enabled driver verifier after you got the BSOD. Disable this.
this is "by design". Composition is always active in Windows 8: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa969510%28v=vs.85%29.aspx The service was removed and the DWM.exe started by the WinLongon.exe. If you kill the exe, the suer is logged off
Do you use the new File History features? http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/extremewindows/archive/2012/12/20/a-new-way-to-backup-file-history-in-windows-8.aspx
