If you’ve got Windows 8 プロ, and wish to add Media Center to it you need a key from Microsoft. In future this wont be free, しかし、あなたは1時までは無料で取得することができます 31st ヤン 2013 おかげで マイクロソフトの提供. 私は私のために登録している, even though I don’t run Windows 8 私はなぜない将来にそれを使用したい場合があるため!
Windows 8 is finished and will soon be available for retail sale. With that in mind it seemed a good time to write an updated guide to getting codecs set up for a fully operational HTPC for both Windows 7 と 8. For this guide I’m using a new feature of HTML5 which creates expandable instructions. At the time of writing this is only supported by chrome and safari 6 but hopefully other browsers will add support in the near future.
Windows 8 and Server 2012 have now RTMed and as expected the good old UI of desktop and startmenu has been replaced with a[intlink id=“2543” type=“post”]新しい恐ろしいです UI[/intlink] (previously called Metro). In their ultimate wisdom Microsoft have left no way to switch back to the old desktop/start menu system, but thanks to various tweaks and tools it is possible to get 90% of the interface restored — good enough to be fully usable. Below I document the various steps and tweaks required.
そう, Windows 8 is coming in late July (October for retail customers). There are no signs that Microsoft will relent provide an option to switch back to the Windows 7 [スタート]メニュー, その代わりに強制されます[intlink id=“2543” type=“post”]恐ろしいメトロインターフェース[/intlink] upon everyone. As a result many of us will undoubtedly stick quite happily with Windows 7, however there are 2 reasons to use Windows 8: それはすべての新しいに来るようにすることを余儀なくされ パソコン soon and for improvements including a performance increase and the new[intlink id=“2283” type=“post”]ストレージ·スペース[/intlink] feature amongst others. If you fall into either of these camps but, 私のような, can’t stand metro, there are now more options available than when I[intlink id=“2552” type=“post”]最後に書いた[/intlink] この問題について.
メトロの場合 UI isn’t[intlink id=“2543” type=“post”]防虫剤[/intlink] 十分な, Microsoft have admitted 3 more things that should make anyone considering Windows 8 think twice.…記事全文を読む
Windows 8 looks to have many nice new features, but unfortunately, as I mentioned in a previous post, Microsoft has decided to create a phone/tablet user interface and foist it upon desktop users as well. This wouldn’t be such a problem if Microsoft had left an option to turn the excellent and well established traditional interface back on, but in their infinite wisdom Microsoft hasn’t provided any such option. Fortunately there are 2 options for getting the traditional start button and menu back.
[OK], I suspect the title is going to give it away. I downloaded Windows 8 8250 consumer preview today, and almost immediately realised that as it stands I am going to avoid Windows 8 like the plague. As far as I’m concerned the UI changes currently make Windows 8 the worst release of Windows ever (even worse than Windows ME!)
Microsoft’sSteve Sinofskyhas written a detailed article about a genuinely exciting new feature of Windows 8 — Storage Spaces. I won’t repeat the details here, for those you can go straight to the horses mouth. However I will point out a key line from a home media server point of view: “There’s another resiliency attribute, と呼ばれる parity, which directs Storage Spaces to store some redundancy information alongside user data contained within the space, thereby enabling automatic data reconstruction in the event of physical disk failure.” To me, this sounds a LOT like a software RAID5 similar to that provided byUnRAID. Until Windows 8 is released and the technology is fully reviewed the details are of course somewhat speculative, but my reading of the article leads me to believe that Storage Spaces will enable the striping of disks, with a parity in the event of single disk failure. Further, it is reasonable to assume that this system will work with standard non-enterprise drives without suffering any [intlink id=“90” type=“post”]互換性の問題[/intlink]. 最後に, it is reasonable to assume that Storage Spaces will offer some of the performance benefits of hardware raid‑5 too. If you have a home server with a lot of media and you want some redundancy, 莫大な費用なし, then this technology sounds like it might be the perfect solution. Thanks Microsoft!
