So far I'm just not feeling the joy with this new OS navigation & startup desktop at all.... ![]() Makes it a pain to get to what you want without the start menu... Without the custom reg entries to access areas needed (rightclick desktop menu for Software & Apps, Control panel & Device manager) all the time its a pain.... ![]() Not sure if I like the new UI or not because when you hit the start button on the desktop, it takes you right back to the ugly green startup screen. ![]() pics below...(the new file system is showing your server invalid file format on the jpeg pics I tried to upload.....hmmm) But once you get passed that screen things are pretty much the same as W7. ![]()

![]() Thanks guys...& with that, here is the screenshots. ![]() As I said in the before post; once you get passed that "Start screen things are pretty much the same as W7" minus the start menu. The start button on the Desktop taskbar only has a few things on it & it won't let you pin programs to it...the prgm start icons end up on the green startscreen. Oh btw, W8 DP x64 only took 7 minutes to do a clean install, so if you want to check it out real quick on a spare partition you don't have to wait long for the installation but it does take up 19 Gbs of space for the 64bit version that's 3.6Gbs. ![]()
