Why did you install Win 8 CP? This is the older version. Win 8 RP has been out since May 31st. It is much improved and fixes many of the problems with Win 8 CP. Use this method (http://www.forumswindows8.com/installation-setup/steps-install-win-8-rp-when-released-read-before-you-download-iso-file-6411.htm)to install Win 8 RP.

The updated beta has many more drivers and fixes many of the Metro Apps.

Hi Engy, welcome to the forum.

Have you done any changes before the issue? Were you able to install the drivers? Maybe the thread below can help you.
