Bug? OS X See Windows 7, XP or Windows 8 Release Preview Installer Burned on Rewritable as Blank

Hi. A Windows 7 (even the Windows 8 Release Preview) or XP Installer burned as backup on a rewritable can't be recognized by Mountain Lion anymore. It sees it as a blank mounted as an Untitled DVD but when you test the rewritable on a virtual and a real PC, the DVD works. The DVD media is 4x DVD+RW (not DVD-RW). What could be a workaround?
Gbu.

I have the tm2 and have not experience an issue with the recovery and wifi being off, but it certainly is in the realm of possibility. I just had not encountered it on my own tm2, so I subconsciously dismissed it or just didn't think of it as a result.
Thank you for sharing your solution with the community.

Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick. First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it. Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy...

Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick. First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it. Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy... When I search for a file, A) it asks me if it's a name, or it wont produce anything, and B), its slower than in prior OS versions and in some instances I have to toggle to a different directory and go back to my original directory in the search: menu bar or the search wont produce anything... Very buggy.

It appears to me that network file access is buggy in Maverick.
In my case I have a USB Drive attached to airport extreme (new model) and when I open folders on that drive they all appear empty. If I right click and I select get info after a few minutes! I get a list of the content.

TS2529 Can you tell me Trying to see if I can get window 8 on this iPad

Can you help me down load window 8

You cannot put windows 8 on an iPad and more than you can put an apple operating system on a PC
the only things you can put on an iPad are apps gotten through the App Store
If you want a tablet with windows 8 then you need to get one with the operating system already installed on it

Windows 8 May 31 Release Preview successfully installed in Bootcamp

I installed the May 31 final preview release of Windows 8 yesterday on an early 2011 MacBook Pro with an existing Bootcamp Windows partition. I burned an ISO image of the 64 bit OS to DVD http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/release-preview and then used it for the install. The install went smoothly, however you need to be alert to several (about 5) auto restarts so you can choose Windows boot each time. The install DVD shows up in the Boot Choices but always choose the Windows Bootcamp partition on restarts and not the DVD after the initial Windows 8 Setup starts to run. The most important thing to note is that the install preserves NOTHING except existing folders and data files, so you have to reinstall all programs. As far as I can tell I can't restore an old Windows backup (maybe you could use a Win 8 Consumer Preview backup if you already have that loaded). I then installed the Bootcamp Drivers (V4). It all works pretty smoothly, a few beta bugs and some incompatible features, but with some patience and minimal work arounds it is very usable with the trackpad.
As far as Windows 8 is concerned it is a lot better than I expected. Metro is about as opposite from Aero / Win 7 as you can get, but it is a bold step that MS needed to make to keep up with Apple. My biggest concern is with Metro and productivity, it seems less oriented to what Windows did best, multi-tasking. I think power users will be switching back and forth between the Desktop and Metro. Gestures are different, maybe a bit more intuitive on a tablet than IOS, Live tiles are ok, but not very useful. They focus on one item at a time - so they don't really compare to a "notification center" for efficient delivery of info. I would like to see iPad icons get a bit larger and have live notices like current temp and a forecast symbol on the weather app. From a technical standpoint the Metro side of Windows 8 is a refined Windows 7, with far better isolation from the Kernel (still not as good as Apple's Mountain Lion will be). Overall I think MS has gone too far with Metro in simplifying the Desktop UI, but I also don't think Apple did not go far enough (http://gizmodo.com/5819418/mac-os-x-lion-this-is-not-the-future-we-were-hoping-f or The first company to find the sweet spot in the middle will dominate the next decade in computing.

IE11 can't post form data to specific frame or window dialog opened via window.open()

Hello,
Form POST targeting to specific frame or dialog popped up via window.open() no longer works in IE11.
It worked fine in IE10 and all previous versions of IE.
Please see screenshot attached with simple test that reproduces this problem.
Direct Link to screenshot:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/IE_11_widow_frame_targeting_BUG.jpg
Direct link to simple test page demonstrating this problem:
http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
Note: IE11 doesn't report any errors, doesn't complain about anything, even when debugged via F12 developer tools. The only thing it complained initially was missing doc type declaration on top of page, but even after adding doc type definition, problem still
persists, makes no difference.
I tested this on fresh install of Windows 2012R2 while testing our web application with the new IE11.
I believe doing this on Windows 8.1 with IE11 will result in same bug/problem.
Our web application uses a technique whereby it launches a popup window via call to window.open(), passing blank URL and specifying a name for the new window. It then does a from post targeting the name of new dialog.
In IE11 this functionality has been broken and no longer works.
Problem is that IE11, instead of posting form to the newly created dialog, it launches a new instance of IE and then loads the requested form in this new instance of IE, while the dialog launched via window.open() remains on screen and is empty. If user repeats
launching same form post request (via button click for example), IE 11 keeps creating new empty dialogs and new IE instance for every form post executed. This totally breaks our application because we use many so called "wizards" that encapsulate
specific functionality in separate web page launched in a popup window.
Another related problem is that if a dialog is launched with window.open(), the java script code in the dialog can not target the parent frame that opened the dialog anymore. In our application, when a dialog is closed, it typically needs to trigger a refresh
of a specific frame within the parent window (again targeted by name) to reflect saved/updated info that user entered in the popup dialog. The result is that we can't refresh the parent frame after the pop up dialog closes. Instead, IE11 launches
a new instance of IE (not just a tab, but a whole new instance) and loads the parent frame in it.
The problem seems to be caused by broken frame name targeting mechanism in IE11.
Note that we force IE to compatibility mode 5, but even without specifying any compatibility, the problem remains.
Typical java script to reproduce this is:
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog">
function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page3.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
Expected: IE11 should correctly post form to and load targeted page in the newly popped up dialog, without opening new IE instance and new tab. Repeatedly posting form to existing popup window should reuse that window, not keep on launching more popup windows
and then more IE instances.
Steps to reproduce the problem (include URL if applicable):
URL with sample page: http://173.231.98.44/cgi/TestFolder/page2.asp
1) Create page1.htm: <html><body>display "I'm in a popup window now ..."</body></html>
2) Create page2.htm with a button and onclick() event calling function to open dialog, and do form POST targeting new dialog calling page1.htm, like below.
<input type="button" onClick="Popup(this.form);" name="btn2" value="Popup Dialog"> function Popup(f){
    window.open("","MyNewDialogName","width=200,height=150");
    f.action = "page1.asp";
    f.target = "MyNewDialogName";
    f.submit();
3) Open IE11, navigate to page2.htm, click the "Popup Dialog" dialog button. IE 11 will popup the new dialog, but then it will also launch new instance of IE11 and display the page1.htm in it, instead of in the popup dialog.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Any insight or help is appreciated.
Regards
Peter

the default action of <input type="button" is submit. Note also that the default type of <button> elements is 'submit' also.
add a return false to the onclick inline event handler (which constructs the form submit attribues) to cancel the default form.submit behavior.
form elements have a target value with which you can specify the name window into which you want the form to open in.
<form action="process.aspx" target="popup">
you can use the window.open method with a query uri to achieve the same outcome.
window.open('process.aspx?s=search+term&foo=bar','popup',{features})
the outcomes of all scripted windows are affected by
your IE Popup blocker and tabbed browsing settings
which in turn is affected by your IE Security zone settings (for popup blocking handling)
and the settings of any third-party popup blocker you may have installed and enabled... it may not necessarily be visible on your browser toolbar.
The first step in troubleshooting web browser issues is to test in no-addons mode.
Use the Developer Tool to find out what documentMode the test page is opening in on your system. On Modal/Modeless popup windows use the f12 key to display the Developer tool positioned on the contentWindow.
Use File>Properties to find out what IE Security zone it maps to... there is a security setting to prevent navigation into zones of lower integrity.

How to reduce size of C:\Windows\winsxs folder in windows 2008 R2?

Hello,
Is there any way to reduce size of C:\Windows\winsxs folder in windows 2008 R2
simular to
DISM /online /Cleanup-Image /SpSuperseded
Many thanks

Okay maybe some background on the root of the problem would help.
Windows XP (and Windows 2000) used a fast and great mechanism called Hotfix Installer (Update.exe) to install updates. Updates installed in very little time. If you wanted to further reduce update times on Windows XP, you could just temporarily stop the
System Restore service and updates would install at crazy speeds. Note that this is not recommended for novice users who don't know advanced recovery methods, as some updates can sometimes cause your system to stop booting so you cannot even uninstall them.
The method the Hotfix Installer used was simple, it just installed a new version of files to be updated at %windir%\system32 and %windir%\system32\dllcache (the Windows File Protection cache). For files that were in use, a restart copied them from dllcache
to the system32 folder. This is simple file-based servicing. The hotfix installer (Update.exe) also supported various command line switches like /nobackup which means not to backup files it patches. Again, this is not recommended for novice users as some updates
can screw your system even after the comprehensive testing Microsoft does before releasing them. But if you won't be uninstalling any updates (usually one only requires uninstalling updates if they cause problems), you could save a ton of disk space by not
backing up the files it patched. The Hotfix Installer backed up files to C:\Windows\$Uninstall$KBxxxxxx folders so even if you did back up the files at install time, they could be safely deleted after a few days if no stability issues were found after using
Windows with the newest updates applied. Update.exe also supported the very important and convenient ability to slipstream a service pack or update into the original Windows setup files using the /s switch.
When Microsoft was developing Windows Vista, they realized that components had gotten too many interdepencies on each other and to service each file reliably without breaking another component that relied on it, Microsoft introduced what they called as Component
Based Servicing (CBS). You can read all about it in a much more technical way at The Servicing Guy's blog. What CBS does basically is it installs all files of the entire operating system, including all languages into C:\Windows\WinSxS and then it hard-links
files from there to C:\Windows\system32. This has the benefit of not having to insert the OS disc to add or remove any components, and some other advantages as well like offline servicing of a Windows Vista or Windows 7 image. But the design introduces a major
disadvantage of taking up a lot of hard disk space. Whenever an update is installed, it no longer installs it to C:\Windows\system32 and C:\Windows\system32\dllcache like Windows XP's hotfix installer (Update.exe) did. Instead, it updates the files in C:\Windows\WinSxS.
Now, Windows keeps multiple copies of the same file but with different version in WinSxS if it is used by more than one Windows component. The higher the number of components, that many number of times the file exists in C:\Windows\WinSxS. When a Windows Vista
update (.MSU) is installed, the components get updated, each and every one, instead of the files and the worst part is it still maintains the older superseded previous versions of components in WinSxS so the user would be able to uninstall updates. Microsoft
does say that some sort of "scavenging" or deleting older copies of components takes place but is scarce on the details. The scavenging seems to take place automatically at certain intervals in Windows 7 but not in Windows Vista. In Windows Vista, you have
to add or remove any Windows component for the scavenging to take place. And Microsoft says the scavenging will free up some disk space but in practice, on my system, I see my free disk space only decreasing on Vista as I remove or add any component. Windows
does not give the user an option to not backup the earlier versions of components like Windows XP's /nobackup switch in Hotfix Installer did. As as you install more and more updates on your system, they will take more and more disk space. This is one of the
primary reasons Windows Vista and Windows 7 are so bloated. Another reason for them being so bloated is the DriverStore that these OSes store. All drivers that are shipped with the OS and the OEM ones which you download and which are installed for a particular
system are staged in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore. But let's not go there for now.
Now, an important thing to note is that the size of the WinSxS folder is not what Explorer or the dir command report, it is far less but is misreported by Explorer because it counts the hard links more than once when calculating size. That does not mean,
the size of WinSxS is not causing real-world disk space problems on numerous Windows Vista/7 systems in use today. Microsoft's ingenious recommendation to this problem of ever growing disk consumption is to install fewer updates to keep the size of the servicing
store under control. Of course, users cannot deny installing security updates and leave their system open to security holes. What they can do is install less optional updates, the ones that Microsoft releases on the fourth Tuesday of every month and also install
less of the hotfixes that are available by request from a Knowledge Base article. In short, you have to trade the number of bugs fixed in the OS by installing hotfixes at the cost of enormous amounts of disk space. The whole servicing stack is a total downgrade
to Windows XP's update.exe method. It causes heavy disk thrashing and slow logoffs/logons while Windows configures these updates at the Welcome Screen. Many systems are unable to boot because of failed updates. Another disadvantage of the "new" servicing stack
(and the redesigned Setup mechanism of Windows Vista) is the inability to do a true slipstream of service packs and hotfixes.
The time it takes to actually install these hotfixes online compared to Windows XP is also completely unacceptable. When you start installing an MSU update, it spends a lot of time determining whether the update applies to your system. Then, the update itself
takes much longer to install compared to Windows XP's Update.exe (hours instead of minutes if you are installing dozens of updates through a script). Finally, that post-installation process ("Configuring updates... Do not turn off your computer") takes several
minutes before shut down followed by a second post-installation process (configuration) upon restart before logon that also takes also several minutes and thrashes the disk.
I can install the entire SP3 for Windows XP in about 10 minutes after downloading the full installer. I can also install a slipstreamed-with-SP3 copy of Windows XP is about 45 minutes on a modern fast PC. In contrast, Windows Vista or Windows 7 do install
relatively quickly (in just about 15-20 minutes) on a modern PC but installing the service packs and updates takes more time than anything on XP did. Not only can service packs not be slipstreamed, but Vista Service Packs are not even cumulative, which means
if you clean install Windows Vista today, you have to install SP1 first which takes about 90 minutes, then SP2 which takes less time, then all the post-SP2 updates which do take hours to install. If you really HAVE to use Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you are
stuck with this slow update non-sense as Microsoft does not even acknowledge that there is any slowdown or loss of functionality in the new servicing mechanism. The fact remains: MSU updates are slow as **** and take too much time and as Windows 7/Vista get
older and Microsoft stops producing service packs, a clean install is going to take longer and longer to bring it up-to-date with all patches installed. Is is worth wasting your time on an OS whose servicing mechanism Microsoft completely screwed up? I once
again recommend you read more about the servicing stack and how it operates at The Servicing Guy's blog:http://blogs.technet.com/b/joscon/. To fix this messed up servicing stack, Microsoft also offers a tool
called CheckSUR for your system if it finds “inconsistencies in the servicing store”.
Microsoft's Windows Vista and Windows 7 products are not engineered with disk space in mind. It causes a problem, especially for SSDs which are still low capacity and very expensive. The only hope is that Microsoft again completely redesigns this servicing
mechanism in a future Windows release so it would not cause this growing disk space consumption issue, speed up installation of updates by an order of magnitude, not slow down logon and logoff, not prevent systems becoming unusable because of failed updates
being stuck at a particular stage and allow true slipstreaming.
Microsoft's response to this is vague - they simply state "Windows 7's servicing is more reliable than Windows XP" but they cannot acknowledge it is a million times slower and still unreliable...slow to the point of being unusable and sometimes leaving systems
in an unbootable damaged state. Of course they know all this too but can't admit it since it makes their latest OSes look poor. Moving from a very simple and fast update mechanism that worked to a complex one that requires endless “configuring” and repair
through CheckSUR is a product engineering defect.
Take a look at servicing-related complaints in Microsoft's own forums:
1.
Very slow install of updates to Windows 7
2.
Windows 7 - Updates are very slow
3.
Windows 7 Ultimate, it takes long time configuring updates
4.

5.

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.

11.

12.

13.

14.
Why can't windows 7 install updates?
15.
Every time computer is shut down, receive Installing updates, do not shut off....
16.
How long does it take for the Windows 7 Home Premium updates take?
17.
Windows 7 "Installing Update 2 of 2" for 12 hours now
18.
Updates causes endless reboots
19.
Updates stuck installing for over 24 hrs. Computer does not boot
20.
Cannot load Windows 7 after installing 2 critical updates
A proper solution to this problem would be to completely re-engineer and rewrite the servicing mechanism so it operates with the speed, reliability and pain-free operation of the XP servicing mechanism.
I don't see this situation improving in Windows 8 either. Good luck with your Windows tablet taking hours to install service packs and updates. Now, do iPads take that long to install updates?
Microsoft understated the real system requirements to keep a Windows 7/Vista system running. System requirements at install time may be 15 GB of free disk space but over time, this number increases to alarming levels as you install more service packs and
post SP-updates. You can find out the real size of the WinSxS folder using a tool like cttruesize (ctts.exe) (download it from
http://www.heise.de/software/download/cttruesize/50272 and run ctts -la -a -l C:\Windows to find the correct size minus the hard links which MS says causes Explorer to misreport the WinSxS
folder size but the fact remains that even with the correctly calculated size of WinSxS, the disk space requirements of Windows 7 to keep it updated are unacceptable, especially for people's SSDs which are running out of disk space!

Reader X on 64-bit Windows 7 Citrix VM will not preview

I am unable to see PDF documents in the Windows 7 (64-bit) explorer "Preview Pane" unless I first launch then exit Adobe Reader 10.0.1. If I try the preview before doing this, I get a system error such as that documented on several posts - "This file can't be previewed," "An Internal Error Occurred," application exception, etc.
I investigated the fix at http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/, but the registry key is configured correctly already. I can find no significant differences running a registry compare; all I have to do is launch Reader one time and the preview operation works until I log out of the VM and back in.
Is this something peculiar to running in Citrix? Is there a setting that should be "pre-configured" to avoid this? We're preparing for Enterprise rollout and using the VM for pilot tests.

it seems to me it is a roaming profile issue - or it is a bug if you ask me
The pdf preview handler needs the catalog "appdata\local\adobe\acrobat\10.0" or else it fails
The catalog is created first time you start Adobe Reader, and since it is local appdata it's not saved by the roaming profile - and you've got the error again on next login
So the workaround is to start Adobe Reader or create appdata\local\adobe\acrobat\10.0 folder at logon - I rather get a fix on this Adobe, the "error" is also in XI version

Is there a way to add two windows in the same window?

is there a way to add two windows in the same window?

what do you mean by your first use of the word "window"? do you mean a visible frame? a section of the gui that the user doesnt see?
or perhaps you mean you want to add multiple tabs to a single window, so that switching between tabs shows different windows?

The particular hp touchsmart notebook I have is a TM2 1079cl, Product Number: WA812UA#ABA. I've only had it for the length of 2012, I purchased it used from another person about 1 year ago now specifically to toy with Windows 8 before it's release. As far as the hardwares actual age I can tell from the warrenty information that it was manufactured in late 2009, it states the warranty period was from January 2010 to Jan 2011.
Alright, so my history with the OS changes goes:
-> Purchased this TM2 in early 2012, ran the recovery partition to wipe it clean of the previous owners use and it ran through installation perfectly fine, then on a clean Windows 7 as if it were new. I'd also made use of a bootable Acronis True Image 2010 disk to make a hard disk image of the three other partitions for recovery (though I did not include the freshly installed windows 7 partition, figured it wouldn't matter if recovery could do it's thing right?)
-> Some days later I loaded the second of the three preview releases for Windows 8 onto it (Customer Preview build I believe).   All worked fine and it dual booted between the two without issue, afaik the only real changes it made amounted to converting the primary partition Windows 7 was installed on to an extended partition and splitting the existing Windows 7 partition equally 50/50 inside that extended partition. It had also overriden the boot manager / bootloader that was there before but again not surprised.
-> When Release Preview build came out over summer I did an update from inside windows 8 and all seemed fine still. The change between the two preview builds did develop an issue where I couldn't shut windows 8 down without a handful of error boxes poping up but I'm pretty sure that was unrelated.
-> More recently about thanksgiving time I decided to give the laptop to a family member with a archiac desktop that's got issues and general old factor that makes it not worth updating.   This person is pretty adverse to change so that whole "Win8-vs-what people are used to" thing comes into play.   I decided to wipe the TM2 clean back to the OS it shipped with.    Here's where I'm now stuck:
=> Before doing anything I made another True Image of the HDD as a just incase, glad I did.
=> Tried F11 to load the recovery partition only to find that because of the bootloader being tampered with by Windows 8 it doesn't actually go to the HP recovery partition anymore despite still being on the hard drive.
=> Grabbed the hard disk image from the beginning of the year with the recovery partition on it before windows 8 touched the machine, wiped the hdd completely clean, restored the disk image.   I could now get into HP recovery fine but....
=> I got a dialog error right off the bat saying that the recovery partition could not install and instructing me to insert disc 1 of the recovery software. Well I never made the dvd's myself with the one-time use burning feature when it worked so that's out and I had not bought the discs from HP's support site.   At this point I'm puzzled though why the recovery partition can't install despite the computer loading up into recovery just fine. For example command prompt in the Windows PE environment is functional and all files seem to be present. Maybe some verification that the recovery partition isn't pirated might have been triggered by hard disk imaging, i'm really not sure?
=> I then made used of the HDD image I'd just created before trying this and restored the other copy of the drive (Win8 tampered bootloader, Win8 release preview, win7, the inaccessible recovery partition and all).   Windows 7 and 8-RP could still boot.   Googled around a bit about the recovery partition key (F11) getting messed up by Windows 8 and came to find I only needed to set recovery as the "Active" partition to get it to start. Sure enough that got it to start but I'm running into the same issue where the actual recovery partition loads up but now refuses to begin the restore process without HP dvd's. Since I know for certain this worked months ago I guess once again since I ended up restoring that version of the recovery partition it may have also declared itself tampered with... great.
=> Contemplated what to do for a bit and then finally just ordered the DVD's from HP in December, I specifically got the recovery DVD's for my model and they did come from HP directly, not second hand from ebay or another person. Wasn't really that bad, $16, very reasonable price. Should be set right, legit OEM DVD's to use? Nope....
=> The DVD's came. Two discs for main recovery and a third for applications and drivers.   Boot off disc one and it states it's formatting the drive how it wants (good, i'm liking this so far), copies all of the contents of the three discs to the hdd and begins it's reboot and install cycle.    Reboots a handful of times, you can tell it gets well past copying the contents of any of the discs and into installing windows. You see the Windows 7 boot logo a few times and even the standard "preparing your things" background that's similar to the Windows 7 login screen. The screen definitely gets as far as installing the proper graphics driver (and others I assume at that time) as the resolution changes to native for the TM2's LCD near the end.
=> Suddenly on the 3rd or 4th (I think) reboot of installing windows it starts for a moment then says shutting down, it reboots and it's back in the windows PE environment of recovery setup again (this time coming from the hard drive, not the DVDs) and says it's failed to restore and offers to start everything over from the very beginning.
That's where I'm stuck. The Recovery Partition died on me post-Windows 8 and the offical HP recovery DVD's are failing me (and oddly they're failing me seemingly in the very last steps of windows 7 restore, well after the DVD's themselves are no longer being read from).
>> Question 1: Does the HP recovery partition "self destruct" if it gets imaged by hard drive imaging software and restored? I can confirm mine worked fine once and then dead after going through Acronis True Image. Another possibility is maybe there's some ID's or tattooing of the hard drive or specific partitions that was lost when Windows 8 put it's newer bootloader into the machine or lost from Acronis? This is still the oem hdd that came with the computer, it has not been switched out.
>> Question 2: Are there any known problems with the official Windows 7 recovery DVD's for a late 2009 TM2 1079cl? I'm also aware of the Cyberlink recovery software patch / pre-install disc and tried this with results that were no different to without it. That said my machine does have the Cyberlink version of the recovery software, I read there's something like 3 different companies software for recovery depending on time period the laptop was made and sold.

>> Question 3: Plainly put, what now? Anything else to try or do I need to go find an RTM windows 7 disc and scrounge all the driver zips together? (Very much hoping to avoid that, I'm actually pretty curious to really understand what happened here and while that'll work it would answer nothing. hehe).
Maybe related things as well: Some searches led me to believe having the WLAN switch off at the start of recovery causes driver installation to flip out (and indeed win7 seems to drop dead during the last steps of driver install) however it's not possible it would seem to turn the WLAN card "on" before this point. Switch won't bring it to enabled state anyways.   As I mentioned above the Cyberlink recovery software patch has no effect on things.   No parts have ever been changed in this machine, original hdd, wlan card, ram modules, ect.   I doubt the motherboard bios / firmware has ever been updated, machine states it's revision F.02.
I have at my disposal:
* A lot of time, actually, hense why I really want to know what happened and not use the Win7 RTM disc.
* hdd image of HP recovery before Win8 touched the machine.
* hdd image of recovery after Win8 and a kinda buggy but still bootable Win8-RP.
* The correct HP-made recovery DVD's for my laptop, ordered recently (December 2012).
* Confident enough to toy with partition editing tools should it be a suggestion, never really used much outside of gparted on linux live discs however. Considering the current state of the machine there's nothing to risk losing anymore though.
Sorry for the text wall! I like being very detailed!

I have the tm2 and have not experience an issue with the recovery and wifi being off, but it certainly is in the realm of possibility. I just had not encountered it on my own tm2, so I subconsciously dismissed it or just didn't think of it as a result.
Thank you for sharing your solution with the community.
