I don't mean that they aren't updated or defragmented. Sometimes people can install drivers or software that interacts with hardware on Different OS versions and it causes problems. Windows 8.0 drivers WILL CAUSE ERRORS on Windows 8.1 On the system partition issue, I was more eluding to dual-booting. Windows 8.1 seems to have a problem with certain ways that people try to dual-boot.
Same problem as ms-7 and MrMagic. Weird corrupted icons whenever it shows the large icon on that type of window. NVIDIA GTX 560 TI Geforce 314.22 (Drivers)
Not seeing that myself. GTX 550 Ti, Geforce 326.80 beta drivers (recommended for Windows 8.1). I'm running 8.1 Professional en-GB.
uninstalled music app and can't get the new version back. app store just keeps installing the "app preview". supposedly, some other apps have the same problem on 8.1 RTM
That "Smart Search" feature is totally rheumatic. Relocated the Documents / Music / Pictures / Video special folders on another hard drive, added a custom Library, recreated the indexing database (left it run overnight, indexed 75000 pics/docs etc.) Then any Search in the Charms bar makes Explorer.exe crawl at 100% CPU for minutes, to no avail. Either it simply hangs and returns nothing, or fails with some error such as "took too long, blah, problem, meh, missa Crosoft not know"
Ok after getting my new keyboard in a Sidewinder X4. Driver issues on the keyboard. Apparently the driver did not set the Volume keys aka the Human Interface Device Service to Automatic on startup. Also the Macro keys will not work on a USB 3.0 port. This was on Server 2012 so it probably extends to Server 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1
Some drivers will fail to install, for example if you go to leshcatlabs.net, we have been working to get a 8.1 version out, but 8.1 is refusing to accept the drivers, except the older versions, 13.4 v2 and 13.6.3 (I believe...)
We have our next bug. Server 2012 R2 Datacenter (genuine copy via MSDN). The RAM is Muskin blackline DDR3 2133. The motherboard officially supports up to DDR3 2000 as a Gigabyte 990 FXA UD7. If we manually set the RAM to DDR3 2127 usually the BIOS tweaking the Kernel files flak out at that speed. Lowering the speed of the RAM to DDR3 1866 with the BIOS tweaking again the boot manager says its corrupt. Lowering the speed of the RAM to DDR3 1600 lets the machine boot properly. Then going back to overclock the CPU to 3.8 GHZ with a FX 8120 the machine boots properly keeping in mind by Overclocking the RAM speed increases to DDR3 ~1700+. This is poor RAM implementation on the Windows boot manager and Kernel of Windows or a poor bios firmware.
Dont know if this has been mentioned (TLDR) but defragmentor does not work for me Also, router UPnP driver still not updated. Contains refrence to icon in removed DLL/Feature, resulting in a blank router icon in network map explorer
My ram works fine at 2133mhz, its possible you do not have the correct ram settings or voltage to run at specified speeds or the pci clocks are off.
They stopped defrag from trying to defragment ssd drives. Is it possible you have one of those? I have noticed the occasional wrong icons though...
I always have a problem with 'restarting',but not all the time, and have to force a shutdown,though I wait long enough for restarting.
