    I did,managed to download 8.1 Pro VL version,but inside are few files and till now i knew that iso file is used for installation,what to do with .dat file and .exe files,and those 2 text files? Should i put them all on bootable dvd for installation?

    Trying to install Win 8.1,but it seems its more complicated than install from .iso file and copy all on cd like with win xp.

    What version did you download? The us-english x64 is in .iso format.

    Ok... if you want the US English version, you only need the .iso file.
    If you want the International English version you need to patch the .iso first.

    What version do you want?

    Ok, if the hash checks out you just made an Windows 8.1 x64 Int. English .iso. ;)

    You don't need the other files anymore...

    Burn the .iso to disc or USB pendrive.

    Install Windows.

    ...EFA11 beat me to it.
