    Hardware problem? I didn't use EFI which was producing some problems for me!

    Not got 8.1 Preview running at the moment, is that (Mount ISO) no longer built into the OS? Right-click .iso and 'Mount' or double-click the .iso file?

    That right, that works! But: it didn't opens the ISO in an Virtual Apps like Virtual CD etc.! I use a lot Virtual CD's/DVD's and many of them are even not .ISO's or could not mount, while working well in V-CD!

    Yap, but you can use DAEMON Tools as SPTD is optional for it.

    :negative:

    TuneUp 2013 does not work!

    Under W8.1 Pro x86, tried several installation methods, but even under compatibility mode was not able to make it run!

    BitDefender 2013, Battlefield 3, Corsair Vengeance 2000

    BitDefender 2013 is not working. However BitDefender 2014 is working but due to the fact that there is a Firewall Bug in BitDefender Internet Security 2014 which block every Connection it is really unusable.

    Battlefield is not working with IE11 because the browser plugin isn't working.

    Corsair Vengeance 2000 Headset is not working either. The microphone however is working perfectly but there will be no audio on the headphones itself. Windows Media Player tells me something about a non-functioning audio device.

    BTW: The text area to write new posts in this forum looks terrible in IE 11. :D
    The height is about two lines. :p

    TuneUp 2013 does not work
    i got it to work by first right clicking on the exe (install file) and then clicking take ownership.then used the trouble shoot compatability option to get it installed,though i get a bunch of compatability warning messages poping up when i run it.
