    I was successfully able to install 8.1 but now Windows Media Player can't seem to play any time of video file whether it's .WMV, MP4, etc., I can hear the audio but there's no video. I can play video clips just fine in VLC player. Has anyone else encountered this problem since upgrading to 8.1?

    Has anyone had an issue using their legit Windows 8 key to upgrade from 8 Pro to 8.1 Pro? It said my key didn't match the edition I was trying to install. I made sure it was the right key because I got it from AIDA 64 and checked my key.

    Check for proper video drivers....

    So far noone was able to neither activate Enterprise (it refuses to accept Win 8 MAKs) nor upgrading successfully without losing activation.

    Seems that needs some server side request and answer isn´t given atm. Had no luck here likewise, tseted several of my machines.

    So can you activate it after 8.1 is installed or is that a big fat no as of now?

    So I just put in my Media Center key that I got from Microsoft about half a year ago and it seemed to have messed up my installation. It's saying that the key is blocked and when I tried entering in my legit Windows 8 retail key it says that the key can't be used to activate this version of Windows. Did I just bork my Windows 8.1 installation?

    This version is even more increase of menu snappiness from Windows 7 final to Windows 8 final. Really enjoying this one. Almost feels like XP.

    I can't seem to burn the x64 WZT, it keeps saying recording error. SHA1 and MD5 hashes are fine, my DVD can record Win 8 WZT just fine as well.. odd

    Same here... I updated my desktops but my Surface RT, which is the one I use the most since it travels with me, still has no love.

    I saw that WZ listed the RT 8.1 ISO on his first list. Hopefully he's able to leak it.

    All hail WZ.

    So what happens if you use the upgrade option instead of a clean install?

    Just a heads up, if one has the Windows 8 Single Language key built into his BIOS, then installing this image as the core edition then trying to activate will NOT work. I just tried it and it failed. We still need a Windows 8.1 Single Language ISO

    I then use the default Windows 8 Pro Key and reinstralled Windows, thenused my gnuine Windows 8 Pro key to activate over the internet and it worked fined
