error: You need to format the disk in drive J: before you can use it
Hi,
After I installed Windows 8 CR, I get countless error dialogs popping up one after another saying once I connect my USB 3 external drive, "You need to format the disk in drive J: before you can use it. Do you want to format it?" I have never used a drive J. The dialogs popping up stop almost all Metro screens and bring me back to the old Windows screen. Once I disconnected that the repeated problem dialogs stopped and all is well.

You did not install correctly and your installation is corrupt. Win 8 RP will be out today or tomorrow. Download the iso file, burn it to DVD and reboot to the DVD. Choose custom install and do the Clean Install. Yes this will require installing all apps over again but this is required for Win 8 RP.
Win 8 CP will deactivate shortly.
