1231428 2011-09-25 21:16:00 How to enable start screen here (www.intowindows.com)

Unfortunately it also removed the ribbon in the file manager..

Anyone got this working on a tri boot system, Win XP, Win 7 and Win 8??

1231431 2011-09-26 02:09:00 Just had a play with the Windows 8 Picture Password Article Here (windows8beta.com) Works very well --- I see MS have submitted the patent claim for Picture Password feature.

Now was it Nose /Right Foot / Left foot, or Left Foot/ Right foot/ Nose :D :lol:

or maybe t1t -tat -toe :xmouth:

1231433 2011-09-27 03:18:00 Not interested in windows 8, only can be used on tablets?! I think honeycomb 3.1 is much better. JasmineCassie (16555)
1231434 2011-09-27 03:27:00 Quite like the ribbon in the file manager but if you go and disable the "touchpad" interface on bootup you loose it and it goes back to the Win Vista / 7 version..

That's good to know.
