Windows 8 Font Issues

Hello, I've been using Windows 8 since launch and love it for the most part. One thing that I can't see past or seem to fix are some of the new MS fonts look awful. I notice the awful fonts only in the ModernUI interface and on outlook.com, everywhere else they appear clear and sharp.
I've tried upgrading my GPU drivers, I've tried tweaking the ClearType settings, but whatever I do, it looks the same.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Windows 8 touchpad issues

I upgraded my old Toshiba L45-S7423 laptop from Windows XP to Windows 8 Pro recently via CD/DVD. A couple of days later, the touchpad stopped working. although a USB mouse works just fine. The touchpad issue might be related to a Windows update that occurred about the same time as the issue appeared.
The laptop has been running Windows XP for several years without issues other than slow boot and shutdown.
Of course, I know very little about Windows 8. Any ideas on how to proceed?
Thanks!

Windows 8, intermittent wifi issues,super frustrated help

Hello. Please help. I am extremely frustrated. Problem: Internet (wifi) is extremely slow, for weeks on end. Background and specifics of problem: I purchased a Lenovo k330B this fall. It came with windows 7 installed. For the 6 or so weeks using windows 7 never encountered any issues with internet. Upgraded to windows 8 at official release, upgrade went fine. Internet worked as usual for first couple of weeks. Out of the blue, internet started acting up. Very slow speeds. Two other computers with windows 7 connected to the same router, continued to work perfectly. Researched and researched without results, then suddenly internet started working again.
Weird.
Fast forward a month or so and boom, internet starts acting up

optical disk installation of Windows 8 after a hard disk crash

I am preparing for a hard disk crash.
I purchased a new PC with Windows 7 in June 2012. It came with a Samsung optical disk containing Windows 7. I am eligible for the $14.99 USD upgrade to Windows 8. Will there be an installation disk for Windows 8 available at this price and if not, then how much more will it cost?
If not, then how should I ensure that I can easily install Windows 8 after a hard disk crash? Do I have to keep my Samsung optical disk of Windows 7?

Windows 7 Game Pack on Windows 8

I know this has been discussed some on the forums but I was never able to successfully install these games on Windows 8. However, I finally found a website that has a download that handles this perfectly. Microsoft Games for Windows 8
This download provides two installers: one for 32-bit and one for 64-bit. Use the correct one for your version of Windows 8. It installs the games (properly modified) in the appropriate locations and even creates Metro tiles for each of the games.
To be honest, the main one I wanted was Chess Titans. I think the new free Xbox Metro apps do a great job of implementing the solitaire and minesweeper games.
I see no problem with installing these games since they were free on my Windows 7 system wh

We already know that the look and feel of Windows 8 is very different from Windows 7. But once you fire up your favorite title, does Microsoft's latest affect your experience? We test 10 games and talk to one of the company's SDEs to answer that question.
