    I have a genuine windows 7 SP1 partition, & I plan on creating a new partition just for windows 8. Just wanna make sure nothing on my windows 7 side gets messed up when I install windows 8.

    Nope, nothing will be touched. Just select the new partition for Windows 8 and it'll install there.

    run sfc /scannow and then Immersive Browser will work fine. DWM.exe must be killed (or press ctrl+shift+F9 to disable DWM)

    What about after running the redpill to activate the hidden features? It still won't affect anything except for my windows 8 partition?
