    Dual booting win7 - win8 CP, everything working correctly in win 7

    have drivers loaded and the sensor appears in Device Manager OK, but can not find the control panel applet to enable the sensor so I am getting the sensor needs to been enabled  error on boot-up

    Anyone have any luck with this or Bluetooth

    best bet is to see if Dell is supporting Windows 8 on their hardware

    I suggest you contact Dell support and report this. Hope they consider to release new drivers.

    The Samsung driver works GREAT on the Dell Duo. I installed it last night and it worked great. It was the 32 bit version. Not every app supports the screen orientation switch, but many do! There is a slight delay on the switch, but Microsoft makes the transition smooth.

    A GREAT BIG THANKS for Gubie!

    I tried it and it works.  Installed straight from the ZIP!.

    Homescreen rotated and Kindle Metro rotated.

    32 bit version confirmed.

    I am curious why you need to rotate the screen, my iPod does that for users but a regular notebook is not like the iPod.

    I also suggest using the 64-bit version of windows which has much better memory support. Drivers will be the same as logo requires both x86 and x64 to be included
