The official documentation that reached the web recently reveal that Windows 8 users should basically make the switch to Windows 8.1 Preview via the Windows Store, as this is the safest, easiest, and fastest way to do it.
Separate ISOs will also be offered for those who wish to set up a dual-boot configuration and install Windows 8.1 Preview on a different partition. Here’s what Microsoft says about it.

I can not install Windows 8.1 Preview
location:

July 4, 2013
Hello! I can not install Windows 8.1 Preview.
I am running Windows 8 Enterprise x64 English and I downloaded your 8.1 x64 English iso. I extracted the iso using 7-zip and run sources\setup.exe. And I choose complete new installation in the same partition and move my current Windows 8 into Windows.old.
After copying the files, my computer restart and then the Beta Fish and then "Your pc ran into a problem and needs to restart. We are just collecting some error info, and then we will restart for you." Then it restart and I go back to Windows 8 Enterprise
x64 English.
Would you please help me? Thank you.

How to install Windows 8.1 having forgotten local password.
location:

March 7, 2014
Unfortunately the WS archives do not mention a password retriever for anything later than XP, and if unable to find a solution I’m in deep trouble, as I understand that if one doesn’t upgrade to W8.1 within 2 years MS support will cease.
This would apply to all three machines in the house, as I have no recollection of the passwords originally chosen. All this is because the Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer kb 2909921, will not install on my PC or the laptop, despite numerous attempts, and I was hoping that it might work with IE11, hence the need for W8.1
Regrettably, BruceR's suggestion in the preceding thread doesn't work here, clicking 'next' with no password entered only produces an incorrect password message.

How to install Windows 8 on machine with less than 1 GB RAM?
location:
8forums.com - date:
March 10, 2012
For Windows 7, there is the ability to hex edit winsetup.dll so that Windows will install to any machine with any amount of RAM. In my online research, I've seen it be said that using the edited winsetup.dll from Windows 7 copied over the existing one for Windows 8 does not work at all.
So my question is, does anyone know which values to edit in Windows 8 winsetup.dll to edit so that it can install well to a machine with less than 1 GB?
My intention here is to get the awareness started with this so a successful solution can be produced.
Thanks for reading.
