rudrax Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hope, those screws won't screw me up.BTW, that mobo is UEFI enabled. So, will you recommend to go with it or I should prefer with the legacy MBR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 BTW, that mobo is UEFI enabled. So, will you recommend to go with it or I should prefer with the legacy MBR?Legacy MBR, only if you're planning on Windows 7.Certainly UEFI, if you're planning later than Windows 7.

rudrax Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hey I have found a tutorial here to download windows 8.1 officially. Now the question is if the 8.1 there embedded with the spring update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hey I have found a tutorial here to download windows 8.1 officially.Since you have an issue of bandwith - did you try using Windows Update, instead?Now the question is if the 8.1 there embedded with the spring update.That article is quite old - written on 14th November, 2013.

dcs18 Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 Glad you got that solved - since you're moving forward to the 8.1 Update, maybe you might now possess the firewalling expertise to play with the COMODO Firewall (if you so wish to.) :think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Yeah, obviously I'll try COMODO on 8.1.1I will also be able to get assisted better in that case as you are using it.Let that 3.7 GB finish first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tezza Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 @rudrax, why do you not look into this topic, i believe it is the best way to go for you.

So you mean, with this tool, I can convert my existing windows 8 to windows 8.1 update? Holly hell! How could this be even possible?As long as you have an ISO, a delta patch can convert it to another ISO (within limits).LostED has nearly most patches already made for conversions required, or you can request what you want.The new ISO will match exactly sha1 etc.Why i suggest to you, is the patch is only about a third of size to download ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcs18 Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 @ tezzaSomeone's going pro. (as in professional not prostitute) - maybe that's his reason for wanting to download the full ISO. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 @tezza, Holly smoke!If I fail to download the ISO that I'm currently downloadin, I'll try this trick.@Hdcs18, I've completed the assembly. Now waiting for the monitor to be delivered. After that, I'll update here the config of the first PC assembled by me.P.S. - if anything goes wrong, that's dcs18's fault, not mine :tooth: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that, I'll update here the config of the first PC assembled by me.You don't need to wait for the monitor to arrive - if you have the proper interconnecting cable, you can just use your existing laptop screen as the (temporary) monitor. That's how we use projectors in our training sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
