Windows 8 IE Metro app will not continue to play video/sound when app is not on the screen.
location:
microsoft.com - date:
November 13, 2012
There seem to be no settings for video or sound to continue playing when the app is not visible on the screen, it simply pauses. I realize that I can view the content on the desktop version on IE and get the desired result. However, I prefer the full screen
experience on the app version when I have it up. I know that some people would enjoy this feature so that they don't miss anything when they have to switch tasks, but I am not some people.
Also, it does not seem to make sense that video and audio will continue to play when I have a different tab open, but not a different app...

Hi Jimmy thanks for the heads up and if nothing its astounds me as a former MS employee he got this so wrong......he obviously had a falling out with them! His analysis was bias and full of holes - not something I would expect from a "mentor and entrepreneur".
I have been in IT industry since 1979 and have Apple and MS products along with Android. I have tried them all and i still use a MAcbook Pro. I would like to see fair and realistic criticism which attempts to sort out problems rather than highlight strengths
of competitors in order to rubbish the product in review. For someone of his background to suggest loading a full blown OS on a ARM platform shows either ignorance or naivety that is what got to me. Plus the fa

After I updated to Windows 7 I tried to boot into safe mode to uninstall a program that was troublesome. The computer loads drivers, stopping at classpnp.sys and the log on screen appears. At this point the computer instantly reboots into normal start
up. How can I fix this, if I ever need safe mode I will have a real issue.

Windows 7 will not start, restarts boot sequence after 'Starting Windows' screen. Can not access system repair, or safe mode.

October 10, 2010
About a month and a half ago, I purchased a new Toshiba Satellite C650D laptop, as I was about to start university.
Everything seemed to be working fine up until about a day or two ago, when my computer began to work much slower than usual.
Last night, when I tried to turn on my laptop, everything worked fine until it got to the 'Starting Windows' page. From that point, the windows logo animation played continuously, without stopping. I restarted my computer, and I was faced with an option
screen to either start windows normally, or run a system repair. I tried both options, neither of which fixed my problem. By starting windows normally, the same problem as before would happen. By running a system repair, it would come up with nothing.
