Windows 8 Discussion

Male eto.. dahil yung 14$ ko na binili na key sa microsoft eh retail key pero sabi nila upgrade key :rofl: walang problema kahit walang previous OS kasi nga retail key.

Ay you sure about it? They Product key that you have is Windows 8 Upgrade Retail Version not a Full Retail Version.

Since it's upgrade key then you can only use that when you're upgrading from previous version of windows (XP,Vista,7) to windows 8.

Retail: Windows operating system products that are acquired through a retail store (physical or online) are individually licensed and are activated. Retail version of Windows generally can be purchased in two license pricing levels, namely Full or Upgrade license.

I will say it again "there is no Full Retail Version for Windows 8".

Windows 8 is offered as an Upgrade only, and for you to install windows 8 you need to have a windows based OS. However, there is still a way to install windows 8 as clean install.

Read my post and comprehend. As what I said the product key that you have is a Windows 8 Upgrade Retail Key! not a Full Retail Version key because there is no such.

It doesn't mean it's Retail then it's full version..

Most Common license
RETAIL and OEM

OEM licenses is from large computer manufacturers and use SLP (System Locked Pre-installation) technology to bind the license to the original motherboard via the BIOS and software.

RETAIL product keys are what the customer gets when he buys a Full Packaged Product (FPP), commonly known as a "boxed copy", of Windows from a retail merchant or purchases Windows online from the Microsoft Store. Retail licenses may be either Upgrade licenses or Full Rights licenses

You mentioned that you purchased your product key through windows 8 upgrade assistant so that means there's a previous version of windows installed on your computer (Win 7, I assume).

How can you use Windows Upgrade Assistant if t here is no OS installed? :noidea:

When you upgrade to Windows 8 you will get these options:

Obviously if you select Install by creating a media then you are downloading the ISO in which you can use it on installing windows 8 on other computer.

I understand that you don't need to reactive your windows everytime you do a clean install on that computer because Windows 8 was already installed on that and the product key is activated on that Hardware.

Just check this link for more information on how to upgrade to windows 8.

Hindi naman ganun ka-demanding sa hardware specs ang Windows 8. Basahin mo DITO.:reading:

NATURAL. Eh ibang software naman na yan kasi kaya may sarili at ibang required hardware specifications para mag-work ng maayos.

Need to edit the registry..

> Open regedit
> Edit -> Find "Display1_DownScalingSupported"
> Change its value from 0 to 1
> Press F3 key and it'll let you go to the next occurrence of the text string. If you find more keys with the name "Display1_DownScalingSupported", change values of all of them from 0 to 1.
> Close Registry Editor and restart your system.
> After reboot, right-click on Desktop and select "Screen Resolution" option. Now you should get 1024x768 option in the screen resolution list. Select it and apply.
> This force Windows to think that your screen resolution is 1024x768 and you'll be able to run metro apps without any problem.
