Has anyone had any issues with win 8.1 on a tablet or laptop in ECCIE.

It has been the worst desktop OS I've ever used and I started with DOS 1.0.

Get it off like a sticky booger. It will not run most of your old software requiring a bank line of credit to update everything. It's file handling is so inefficient, you'll have to add 25% to your workforce because of inefficiencies, and it can't find apps to run programs trying to sell you crap through their store.

I'm changing back to Win 7 and will stay there until it is no longer supported. Then I'll move to Linux.

Now if you are of the mind that any problem can be solved by reformat/reinstall, be my guest. You don't know how to use computers - just set them up.

Make like the Gingerbread Man and run run run as fast as you can - away from that POS.

My first OS was on mini's in the 70's. Yea know dos 1, win 3.1 and everything forward. But I have a win 8 tablet so win 7 is not an option.

So will wait it out and only do ECCIE and other websites on my win 7 laptop.

Thanks for info.

PS agree with Linux option, but I deal with a lot of speciality stuff that has no option of Linux. Does it have a Windows compatibility mode?

You could run Windows within VMWare on your Linux system.

Actually I am.

I just got my new Windows 8 laptop, and I primarily use Firefox for my browser. When I updated to 8.1, ECCIE times out in Firefox, but not in IE.

I thought it was just me!

I'm actually not a fan of the Apps thing. I have a tablet if I want to use Apps. I just go to the desktop and use everything online.

Actually, I just hate Win 8.1 but it runs Firefox fine on my desktop - even ECCIE which I access in Private Browsing mode.

Perhaps a Firefox add-in is out of date or causing problems? Also, you may want to check the Win 8.1 security settings.They are much more paranoid than Win 7.
