Matt I've just found one programme that isn't working correctly, as it's got an issue with a 3rd party plug in (which works fine on it's own in Chrome, but not with the application). Going to see if they have a fix for it tomorrow.
Matt Had an issue with high CPU, and tracked it down to this: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-performance/windows-81-pro-high-cpu-usage-from-intel-process/9d89b9db-498f-4eec-9381-88a6937bd1b6 Installed the current version of Rapid Storage Technology from Intel, and nice low CPU now

carson_sri thats me updated to 8.1 wifi was saying limited again. but i just updated the driver and now it works. im sure i did that last time and it never helped. but all good now 🙂 why does it mess up the touch pad when you update. ???
carson_sri Matt said: What is wrong with the touch pad? I've noticed my scroll is now the other way (bottom to top) my scroll wasnt working but its sorted now. mine wasnt inverted tho. lol.
Matt Might have a look at mine then, and see why it's the wrong way. Might just be a setting that I've missed.
Matt Mine is running really nice now. CPU usage stays lower than it did on Win7, and boots bloody quick on the SSD HDD
carson_sri everytime i start the laptop the touchpad scroll does not work. i have to go into the device and fix it and the icon dissapers from the taskbar. does anyone know what might be wrong. its only started since i updated to 8.1
