Problem installing Windows 8.1 torrent

[mjmacky]

I think most people post here because they need help

They need help alright, but it's not for "installing a torrent".

Most of the population here need help with their priorities and mental health. When a legitimate hardware or software question is posed, the sincerity of the request is quite obvious. This is obviously not a sincere inquiry.

Content-wise, there's nothing wrong with torrents. Especially when grabbing something as prevalent as Windows.

Very inaccurate statement. In fact, many downloaded programs are easier to work with- as they do not have the bothersome DRM to fight with. The last time I tried to "go legit" with a totally bought-and-paid-for version of Window$, I gave up after calling their authorization # (over a period of 30 days, occasionally) and just ended up "authorizing" the thing myself. Much quicker.

Also, if one selects a well-tried torrent, often times, knowledgeable users will post regarding any troubles they had installing, as well as any solutions they found.

What happened with the original post? Let me guess, a link was edited into or something nefarious.

It should be fixed now.

I don't believe calling Mary an "it" is appropriate, even if getting him fixed is a good idea.

The images are utterly useless. I'm beginning to doubt this thing even has a computer.

This is the second serious insult by mjmacky. First he called me a vague moron (edited) and the most recent one "I'm beginning to doubt this thing even has a computer."

I have found the solution in any case.
