I can offer a better solution.
Take the machine out of the trash and install Linux and say goodbye to all the BS that MS has to offer.
I bet after a week you'll never use Windows again.

Recently bought a new laptop, from HP and I am so confussed with the new windows 8, I can't even use the darn thing, reminds me of the time I was stuck with an Apple Machine. Is there a way to change the screen and start up to look and behave like Windows 7?
Other wise, I'm giving this piece of junk a good toss out the window. And I don't mean Windows 8.
Thank you for any help you all can be, I just wanted a new computer not an operating system like this..

2015-06-20T20:09:50+00:00 Can't Microsoft admit it's failure and allow all of us downgrade to win 7? I got this win 8 used so no matter what I'm stuck with Vista 2.0 ;)
