    hi everyone, i've found something strange in 7989 build. My laptop is Dell E6510 with core i5 540M so 2 core and 4 thread. I've installed hyper-v features and after the reboot ( as windows 2008R2 server) i've got only 1 core / thread ! somebody has the same result ??!!

    i've just take a look with a 2nd generation i5 and same result. After a cpu benchmark i've noticed a decreased performance of cpu. if I disabled hyper-v features, all the thread are back...hope in beta it's fixed...Am I the first who see/test that ??

    Can anyone confirm that there is no control for audio using a remote control. I use Media Center and cannot change volume or mute with remote control and if inside media center cannot change volume using toolbar.?

    On my laptop it is installed.
    If the speakers are muted and I press a volume key, they get unmuted. But except this behavior nothing works.

    Tried everything, i don't think its a driver or software issue, its the OS. Volume keys just don't work in MC or from a remote control, everything else is perfect.

    Missing = A moderator done it ;)

    We're cleaning things up and that thread had got out of hand so it's been deleted. A new thread to replace it should not be made.
