Does anyone know how compatible Windows 8 would be for the Dell Inspiron Duo-Fastback?? I just bought one today and assumed it would work better with Windows 8. Oh and btw its coming in the mail on friday. I just saw a couple reviews and was just wondering.
Is there Anyone?

Just look at the minimum system requirements and if your laptop meets them, then go ahead and try it. I installed Windows 8 on my crusty old Presario, which has a really old Celeron processor, and Win 8 still ran despite a little lag of graphics!
I'm running windows 8 on my inspiron dou and its running great

Has anyone tried to install w8 on Dell laptop? I've successfully installed on it but no display on screen. However I can see desktop if I plug into TV via HDMI.
Any solutions?

Hi,
This is Anoosha from Dell Social Media Team.
This is with regards to the issue which you are facing. As per the display specification of Vostro 3350, the Maximum resolution supported is 1366 x 768 pixels at 263 K colors. But windows 8 has a higher resolution rate which is not compatible on this model. You can try saving the above resolution when connected to TV and check the display on system, but this might lead to other driver conflict.
Please reply for any concerns.

Hi Anoosha,
Thanks for your reply. It doesn't work on screen even I set the correct resolution. Now, I've to use the VMPlayer to try windows 8.
Just one upset thing is that I can't use windows 8 on my laptop even I would like to buy it.
Is there anyway can we get a new display driver which supports windows 8?
Thanks.

Since Dell is looking here.. Any news from new touchpad drivers to Vostro 3350? Drivers supporting new gestures from Windows 8?
Hi,
Thanks for the reply,
I completely understand your concern but we are sorry to tell that as of now the drivers available are for windows 7. The manufacturers have to release the drivers for windows 8 in order for us to update on our support site and this would take a month or two.

OMG!!!! Dell, Any news on a new Android tablet?
Is there any Android tablet? I didnt know. Never saw one. Thought it was a big smartphone only.
Windows 8 is also not recognising my monitor on my laptop unless I disabled the intel drivers and use an incredibly low resolution.
There doesn't seem to be a fix anywhere apart from some ridiculous 'stand by' trick that works for some but not others.

According from Dell-Asooh, we need to wait for 2 or 3 months to get updated driver. That's not good enough to wait that long and use low resolution.

Keep in mind that you probably need legacy hardware and possibly Windows XP to use it.
I have a Dell Venue 8 Pro and I'm wondering if it would be possible to dual-boot Windows 10 and Android? It's running Windows 10 now. I ask because I know that the Dell Venue 8 runs Android native.

Hey venue 8 and venue 8pro are a whole different devices you won't be able to run the android in dell venue 8. But don't worry I have got you covered.
Venue 8 pro is x86. So remix os and phoenix os will work
These os are made for PC. Both of them are in beta version, so you will face errors. Still give it a try. For more info pm me.
