      Y E S    I do like my new system-8 on my original Vista; and YES, it is a step beyond and into the realm of single fingering operation = like my original 128k Mac and my latest iMac cliking and dragging = but before I can talk and it listens and undersatnd as in the USCIIIIII CODE Proposal and its Global Open Innovation opportunities and promise of the machines we have been expecting for too many years = can we have less additional costs in the wars of recognizing the existing working hardware my computer does have that the most advanced system yet developed by Microsoft refusal to recognize and call for more $ for code needed for the proper recognition of my ready and able Camera and CD DVD reader and writer that keep asking for recognition...

    Where the HELP files and automation do not help where bios is depended on DOS and not on secured ROM by FACTORY; are we holding the UPDATES/UPGRADES of the major clients like HP dv6000 models????

    Is there some logical reason why you post a question about Windows 8 in a Windows 7 forum?

    The Windows 8 forums are found @ http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w8itpro

    Hi,

    To make devices work properly in windows 8, we need install appropriate drivers. So I suggest you  go to the manufacturer websites to download the official drivers for windows 8, when they produce the devices, they should write the driver for their products.

    Meanwhile, before you install Windows 8, Windows 8 installation wizard should give you a screenshot to know if you are able to install it in current PC.
