    Sony Visio and windows 8

    Anyone know the secret to load windows 8 back on one of these laptops. I know this sounds like an elementary but its kicking my butt.

    You are not alone:

    REDMOND, WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Bill Gates’s first day at work in the newly created role of technology adviser got off to a rocky start yesterday as the Microsoft founder struggled for hours to install the Windows 8.1 upgrade.
    The installation hit a snag early on, sources said, when Mr. Gates repeatedly received an error message informing him that his PC ran into a problem that it could not handle and needed to restart.
    Makes me feel better about using a Mac.

    Is there a partition with an installation image?
    You need to boot from it. Probably D: or E: drive.

    Or navigate to it and run setup.
    Never, under any circumstances, consume a laxative and sleeping pill, on the same night
