Hi list, It's Alvin. I received this message about a Windows 8 upgrade (8.1) yesterday, but I don't believe I can use it on my computer. At least that's what the message says. Do I ignore this upgrade, or try to install it anyway? It says something about my CPU doesn't support it. Read below to see what I am talking about. I am running Windows 8 64 bit. Thanks in advance! God bless! AC Back Updates (27) Windows 8.1 Download After the download, you'll be asked to accept the Windows Software License Terms. If you do not accept, your prior version will be restored.
