    Maybe someone wrote, but at the moment not working Thinkpad Fingerprint, Lenovo System Update 5.02 (not possible to install as all programms, only via cmd using couple commands). Nvidia drivers has some glitches. Rest of things works.

    I cant edit my post from mobile web, but I forget to write. You can use built in windows fingerprint. Its works. Except from sleep mode you can login by password typing. Nice feature is in Windows 8.1, when you buying app in Marketplace, you can accept by password and by fingerprint as well. :)

    However, 8.1 CAN be activated with KMSpico (either standard or portable) - same applies to Office 2013 VL. (I've used both standard and portable in testing, and both work.)

    Still don't understand why people want to install Anti virus program on windows 8, waste of time.

    Definitly can understand, as Win Defender, besides the fact being a MS product, is poorly integrated into the GUI. It needed me to run a reg script to access it through the context menu. Thats a nul number indeed, as every other AV will offer that option by default :doh:.

    I'm very comfort with AVG IS 2014, as it's highly adaptable to my needs without making a degree in rocket science.

    The most important: If i declare something to be excluded, AVG don't dare to touch or even look at it !

    You can see it in the MTK thread, that some AV even in case they were disabled, still protect you from yourself :mad:.

    To cut it: I AM THE ONLY ADMIN ON MY PC (besides MS) :D. I really hate it being protected without my knowledge and against my will.

    Last point: With Defender there is always a door wide open for MS to check my files :doh:. That leads to things like MTK being flagged after a while ... keep that in mind :Albert:.
