    Question - been waiting to get an account registered in Windows 8 !!


    Hello to all,
    I have registered with the Windows 8 forum because I wanted to try out the consumer preview. They have not sent me a confirm email yet!!! My old acer was gutted and got a used board to run the Athlon X2 +6000 processor I took out of this box. Got it running with Ubuntu 64 bit. But since there is enough power and 4 GB of ram, I thought I'd give the W8 a go. I don't do virtual machine and such. So my question is can the downloaded windows 8 consumer preview be made to boot and do a clean install, and erase the Ubuntu? Thanks for any assistance!

    Hi Glenn

    I've no idea why you've not received the email, but as it's you I've just gone ahead and activated the account

    Hello and thanks! Much appreciated. Windows 7 is a GREAT forum, hope 8 has the same people or equally as friendly and helpful!
