August 17, 2013
I'm on a Mac computer and am looking to use Windows for use through Boot Camp. I've already purchased it and have the product key. The only way I've found online to download this file is through the Windows8-Setup.exe but .exe files cannot be run on Mac
computers. Is there any other way for me to download this file?

Hey guys, need help here. sorry if i post this in a wrong section
I'm using ASUS A43S with NVidia GEFORCEGT 540m CUDA.

So I lost all my programs, its fine for me though, I can reinstall all of them but it seems now my graphic card is not detected as Nvidia but some kind of windows basic graphic card driver ? now I can't play FIFA12 but others just work out fine. I can't restore to factory state because apparently its gone (i dont know why, maybe accidentally deleted it). can anyone help me ?

I am trying to download the Windows 8 Pro upgrade. I keep getting this error message:
"Windows installation encountered an unexpected error. Verify that the installation sources are accessible, and restart the installation."
Also get this "Setup is unable to launch Install.exe. A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed." [Error=0x8007045a].
I have tried the installation several times and keep getting these same responses.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
