SUPPOSEDLY THERE IS A new??????? HOTFIX FOR THE BLACK SCREEN... HAVE SPENT NEAR 4 HOURS AND IT SURE IS HIDDEN IN i GUESS sANDYS RUBBLE PITS.....THE HOT FIX NUMBER IS CLAIME TO BR )hotfix (Fix413812000) BUT SAYS CALL ms TO GET IT... DOESNT WORK THAT WAY EITHER SURE SEEMS LIKE ONE GIANT SCAM CAME OUT HERE...... and funny as it sounds about an hour ago had "inspection scam" phone call..... told me were going to inspect my computer and fix it cant repaet what I told tyhe guy who sounded as if was in MUmbai,India by his accent.....
Now have to wonder..... maybe is a real scam going on here with a virus stuffed into the download of win 8 pro and multi media files......
if there is a hot fix someone tell me how to get it as right now am waiting for the dvd to ome in... got email telling me be in about a week..... lucky have another pc to use...... and can bet be no more win 8 trash for e on any of my other computers...... have to fix it or will remove drive and go thru it line byine to recover info I need and trash win 8 and the dvd and go back to win 7 pro and start loking at the apples
same issues here. uninstalled win8 went back to win7pro on suggestion from MS escalation rep then reinstalled win8. didn't help, it is even worse than ever. Dell was also no help as they are stymied and mistified. way to go MS and Dell.
my next computer will definetly be a mac. I am 61 and have stuck with MS through thick and thin. Well no more MS do you here me? and even though it cost low bucks to download and order DVD i will be requesting my $$$ back.
I have spent over $5000 on computers and software from Dell and MS and have been treated by ****. I have been bounced around from one incompetent rep to another and bounced back and forth between the two companies. If I live long enough to purchase another computer it will not be with MS software.
As for those who were lucky enough to have had no problems, BRAVO to you but wait, it's coming.
