Windows 8 Consumer Preview

Anyone having any luck with getting blue tooth to work? Also button support under window 8 consumer???

 

Those who has Win8 CP can post what works and what doesn't. for EP121.

 

for bluetooth:

- instal WLAN driver from asus website in compatibility mod (windows 7)
- just install bluetooth driver when installer ask you.
- restart and enjoy.

bluetooth work fine for me.

 

for me everything works except the accelerometer, the volume buttons and keyboard button

battery ok
Bluetooth ok (when you install the WLAN drivers from asus in compatibity mode windows 7)
Pen ok
touch ok
light screen ok

boot in 8 seconds
Wake in 0.5 seconds

 

Aww, shoot. Lack of buttons and easy rotation is why I went back to Win7 from the earlier W8 tech preview. The minute somebody gets rotation working, I'm in.

 

Here you go:

Enabling Metro Snap with lower resolution displays

No install just a registry edit.

 

I thought big selling thing for win 8 is design for tablet; yet no rotations? uhmm. I thought Samsung 7 and EP121 are MS test vehicles...S7 has rotation issue too.

 

itune ?kindle? onenote, etc? works or not?

 

under battery mode, how snappy is Win 7 CP..

oh.. Firefox? good or bad?

 

No rotation of the screen.
Drivers "EeeSlate ACPI Utiity" and "EeeSlate ACPI Utiity (gsensor)" are not compatible .

Can't disable the Bluetooth.
