A Guide to Overcoming the Windows 8 Learning Curve

Let’s face it: Windows 8 is a little daunting. It’s a completely different user experience than what you’re used to. Windows 8 has a bit of a learning curve, whether you’re upgrading from Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7. That’s where we come in.

Here’s a set of articles that will help smooth the transition from old Windows to new Windows. From turning on and off Bluetooth to getting to the Control Panel to navigating around Windows to changing power options to hibernating your PC … we’ve covered most of the bases.

We’ll be continuing to cover Windows 8 topics for the foreseeable future, too. If you’re still having Windows 8 issues after reading through these guides, leave a comment here with your problem, or post it on our Facebook page.
