issues with 5.01 and Windows 8

Hello,

I have been having a few issues with 5.0.1 and Windows 8 and wanted to see if anyone else was experiencing these.

1. Aero glass is not working correctly. I was originally having issues with Office 2013 and that was fixed by disabling hardware acceleration for Office only

2. Issues with USB devises when USB 3 is enabled. The machine wont shutdown and the machine frequently locks up. As a workaround i changed the VM to only use USB 2.0

Thanks!

Wasn't Aero removed in the RTM and Retail version of Windows 8?  I thought it was.

I think you might be right on that. I was using CTP before. I wasnt sure if it was an issue with 5.0.1 or not but it does appear to be removed from RTM.

Thanks!
