    Yeah its crappy because system freeze start after I'm install Developer Preview, before (i mean 7989 and older versions) work perfect :confused:

    And i have much better hardware (T4500, 4GB RAM, 750GB HDD and GT320M GPU) sometimes work 3h sometimes only 30 min.

    have you tried installing your previous OS? then install win8 again? if your previous OS installs fine,no freezes and what not,afterwards,install win8 again and see what happens. it could also be that you have a bad/corrupted ISO image of win8RC,since you said the previous win8 realeses,DP,CP, have installed well with no issues

    Have to wait 15-20 seconds before WMP12 will play a video file from a external HDD. Don't know if it's a bug, but it is really annoying!:(

    Edit - Just sent feedback to MS about the above using the feedback tool.

    Tks, it didn't work first time, tried regedit, regedt32, double click regedt32 in system32, all gave me error and failed to open. Then after I installed ClassicShell, all 3 works, really nice pre-release thing from MS. :D

    Does fruit ninja work for anyone here? Tested it on 3 different computers & it didn't start on a single one of them.
