Will see to getting it changed.

You may be able to do it with DISM, which has its own progress bar.

First problem, you specify AutoLogon but no password. Do not use empty objects. Also, you can only use that answer file on an Enterprise or Server OS and you need to specify a password for the Administrator account. Second, your answer file doesn't have any objects that hide OOBE pages.

Microsoft uses Torrents nowadays?

Sounds good, but take it easy on the tags next time.

Regarding that SecureBoot message. Its confusing a lot of people because normally you do not see the build number on the desktop unless Windows isn't activated. However this is not the case. You can be activated and still see that message. Also, it is not a requirement to enable SecureBoot on UEFI systems unless they are a tablet. So if any Windows 8 system was installed on a GPT disk but SecureBoot is not enabled, the user will see that message after updating to Windows 8.1 from the Store. (it is possible a clean install also does this but I haven't tested it yet). And to make matters worse, not all hardware that does support UEFI for GPT boot (especially 3rd party emulators like MSI's 2.2TB Infinity) even have a SecureBoot option in the BIOS. I'm not sure why Microsoft would make all Windows 8.1 OSes show this message, except maybe to brag that the hardware it is installed on isn't certified for the OS. Also found this online, maybe Charlotte can use it...

--JorgeA I had no idea it even came out? Didn't some Apple stuff come out this week? My twitter was full of reaction to those, not a peep about a Surface.

Forum rule 2e applies to your question.

Welcome to the MSFN!

I'd be down for a Win8 mod that showed this.

Ok I have one answer so far. If you have purchase your computer and Windows 8 came pre-installed, or Windows 7 was pre-installed as part of the Downgrade Rights program, but are using a local account only, you can ask the computer manufacturer for a Windows 8.1 Recovery DVD. As I would expect anytime you go to an OEM to ask for recovery media, they usually charge for it. I am still waiting to see what the case would be if the computer was purchased with the OEM System Builder Kit version of Windows 8 installed.

I am seeing if there are any alternate ways. I wouldn't be surprised if MS hadn't considered that option before preparing the product for release.

A split topic greeting, not sure I've seen that before.

What did you do, Ray?

Choosing to install Windows 8.1, then when entering a product key, its kinda picky. An OEM key from the BIOS returns an invalid key message. Another key I tried gave me a message "This product key cannot be used to install a retail version of Windows 8." I would presume maybe the key it is looking for is either from a retail SKU or one from the OEM System Builder Kit. EDIT: the website actually says that it only works with retail.

If by "it first came out" you mean how it was shown in the theaters, I have another one for ya. I saw Brotherhood of the Wolf in the theaters and it was edited on the VHS release. It wasn't anything horrible (or at least as horrible as the ending) but it was definately changed. As for me, probably will be taking a break from movies for a while. Last night I watched Fist of the North Star. It is fair to say that I am unfamiliar with the original story. This movie wasn't the worst manga adaptation I've seen, but most of the movie had an 80s B sci-fi movie feel to it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fist_of_the_North_Star_%281995_film%29

I just deployed and activated. Downloading the update will take some time. Last week it took nearly 18 hours to download the 8.1 update...

I find no problem leaving Malwarebytes installed on a system, but I always have it not do any active scanning.

The Windows 8 that you have, is it RT or a more normal type of Windows? I can test on Windows 8 x64 with that to see if it would work... presuming I can get to the download that is.

Do you have an opposite?

Actually, JFYI, the - I guess only - CRT glass recycling plant in the US is near NY: http://www.nulifeglass.com/index.htm (it is supposed to be the "cleanest" of the possible alternatives ) jaclaz New York State is a big place. I haven't the knowledge of which region in the state Charlotte is from. The place in your link is actually news to me, but it is one of the places that charges a fee. I wonder what it is and if it is worth it to be rid of 4 CRTs.

Alice, Sweet Alice bills it as starring Brooke Shields (similar to how The Van starred Danny DeVito) but is featured in very few scenes. Overall it was fine, revealing the real killer before the movie was over, which gave the ending a strange feel. However the last peice was revealed, the motive, afterwards just needing to show the wrap-up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice,_Sweet_Alice

When you download that file, it prefers to use the Microsoft Download Manager which is as awesome as you'd expect. I'm going to grab it for funs, since MS still hasn't RTM Windows 8 RT, they have 4 days left. Anyways, I doubt anyone would care about it.

Maybe... I am not sure if I've seen the remake. The (1972) version I have is the MGM Movie Time version, it is not a rental. The other censored film I have is Possession. This one made sense. As I watched it, I initially thought it was one of those "art" type things, some filming genre that meant for you to think about it. The movie was severely disjointed and skipped around a ton. Nope, it turns out the VHS I had was missing nearly 30 minutes of footage! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Possession_%281981_film%29
