Fucking AMD

>Buy RX 580
>No drivers for Win 8/8.1
>Drivers only for Win 7 and 10
What is this bullshit?
Why the fuck would AMD skip a Windows version completely?
Can this even be fixed?

HAHAHAHAHA
WINDOWS 8
HAHAHAHA

There are drivers for the 64-bit version only, but upgrade to 10 anyways

>Windows
Found your problem, OP

Why don't you try Windows 10 drivers OP?

Nope

They won't install
Win 7 drivers will install but not work

Windows 10 is free.
If you want Windows 7 Pro, I have like 6 licenses here if you want one

>his OS requires separate drivers in 2017

>Windows 8
There's little drivers for this rare version of windows.

Go back to windows 7 if you want more privacy or windows 10 if you suck cocks.

KMSpico is also a thing.

>His OS requires a doctorate in computer science and hacking
No thanks autismo.

Why would you use win8 in the first place? Just upgrade to 10 or switch to loonix.

kek underrated

Windows 7 doesn't give you more privacy.
Windows 10 is actually more respectful of your privacy because it's more transparent about all the data it's gathering from you. Unlike Windows 7, Windows 10 actually makes an effort to justify spying on you all the time, by using the information it collects to improve your user experience, as opposed to just silently absorbing it exclusively for Microsoft's benefit with no benefit to you, like Windows 7 did.
You should upgrade to Windows 10.

>my sides

Too funny. They really did remove 8/8.1 support but not windows 7. Win7 is far too popular for them to give up on it despite MS pushing for 10.

10/10 pasta

What? It's true. 7 is just as much spyware as 10 if not more, only difference is 10 affords you the courtesy of making it obvious and even lets you turn some of it off.
Some of it you can't turn off but that's only justice. Windows is a service, if they're going to keep serving you then you need to keep paying for the service by providing advertising data. If you really want a completely ad free, spyware free experience, yet still with all the compatibility and power and efficiency that Windows has and other OSes lack, and this really is very important to you, and you have, like, a LOT of money, you could try commissioning Microsoft for some kind of partnership whose terms include that they'll make you a debloated, detelemetrized Windows 10 ISO and license it to you exclusively.

Oh shit you're actually serious.

Why would you even been using 8/8.1 when you can still upgrade to 10 free?

>upgrade

I know people joke about people being Microsoft shills.
But it's a joke.
But this is not a joke: are you, like, ACTUALLY a Microsoft shill?
Your method of shilling seems pretty honest and self aware so I'm thinking if you were, you're the kind of person who'd admit it.
Can't hurt to ask.

Windows 7 drivers are fine with 8/8.1

Nice meme image faggot, if you really cared you would know most privacy stuff can be turned off in the latest 2017 march build from the very setup, no need to move around menus anymore.

They won't install, and if you change the compatibility mode to Win 7 they will install but still not actually work

Put the cameras on everything prior as well and you have a more accurate picture
Windows has always collected user data, what's so wrong with finally being forthcoming about it?
Upgrade to 10, it's the most honest Windows yet
Not a shill, just a bored and somewhat disgruntled employee whose opinions are colored by his company loyalty

"""off"""

>people actually think you have any amount of privacy on any version of windows
laughing out loud

>Actual MS employee admits to being a shill
Holy shit please be real

>2017 + 5
>People still care about telemetry data when apple osx, ios, linux and android do the same, hell, windows xp sent microsoft telemetry data too.
>They still think personal data is being sent to the actual servers
Holy shit, bunch of morons, you could be rocking the most lightweight and fastest os ever if you weren't such a morons who take for granted everything posted here.
arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/07/faster-booting-smaller-footprint-make-windows-10-an-easy-upgrade-for-old-pcs/

see this is what i keep trying to tell them and why they should just upgrade already

>linux
are you literally the dumbest motherfucker who ever lived

Read the fucking eula, they sent hardware and app crash data in "basic" mode, so that's why you can install 10 on almost any pc and it will download every driver form the get go without you needing to do something, its only when you use a microsoft account that they take personal data from you.
No one ever has post any kind of proof of microsoft actually spying on their users, like, at all, and its been 2 years.

whatever, it's not like we give a shit about anything you do or say on our os beyond how we can work it into anonymized statistical models that inform our business decisions
there's no good reason you should have a problem with that but if you really do then just use linux
see if we care

fuck off shill

searchenterprisedesktop.techtarget.com/tip/Windows-10-keylogger-adds-fuel-to-the-privacy-fire

How often does Ballmer come to your cubicle and forces you to give him the ol' Vista?

Like I said, you can disable that on the initial setup, on the privacy screen with 6-7 settings to turn off.
Good try.

The page you just posted literally tolds you how to easily disable it, and you can do it on the initial setup of the os.
"B-BUT I JUST PRESS NEXT TO EVERYTHING LIKE A RETARD!"
Your problem nigger.

>"tt-rust microsoft p-pls"
How about you suck me dry and I take a dump on your face?

forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2015/11/02/microsoft-confirms-unstoppable-windows-10-tracking/

>2015
Literally, 3 builds ago, get with the times grandpa, your own article posted before tells you that creators updates doesn't have this.

Okay, then show me the code that shows that the privacy settings actually do anything
Oh wait :^)

The burden of proof is on you, you claim microsoft spies on users, so, where is the proof?
yourlogicalfallacyis.com/burden-of-proof
Good t- no, that was a bad try, lmao.

When you install creators update 2 and you turn it off, it says Microsoft will only collect basic information when it's off.

Do I need to google it for you, or can you just read the description on the windows 10 setup.

>where is the proof?
The EULA

>Buy new hardware
>Not supported by an old, stopgap OS
HOW DARE THEY

They collect telemetry data, again, you need to prove to me where it says or where is the proof that microsoft take personal data from the user when you're not using their services (aka, microsoft account, online, etc).
I will give you a hit, its all here: microsoft.com/en-us/Useterms/Retail/Windows/10/UseTerms_Retail_Windows_10_English.htm
This would be like your 10th post without any proof whatsoever, so, if you will not post any, I take you can't make a statement. Like I thought.
gg [spoiler]ez[/spoiler]

There ins't a single part on the eula that states that microsoft will take user data without consent or when they aren't using their services.
Maybe YOU should read it user.

Then if MS has nothing to hide, why is the source code closed?
checkmate athiests

Exactly, yet you gave them consent when you installed Windows 10.

3. Privacy; Consent to Use of Data. Your privacy is important to us. Some of the software features send or receive information when using those features. Many of these features can be switched off in the user interface, or you can choose not to use them. By accepting this agreement and using the software you agree that Microsoft may collect, use, and disclose the information as described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement (aka.ms/privacy), and as may be described in the user interface associated with the software features.

Install Linux

I fail to see any proof from you, either
You're own fallacy applies to you too, retard

>No drivers
HAHA LINEX NO DRIVERZ NO GAEMZ LOL
Also, write your own

>Without consent
Nice subtle attempt at moving the goalposts

Exactly, you are giving them your consent when you use THEIR services, that are listed here:
privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement/
So, where is the "spying"?
Protip: Only if you use cortana and/or bing, microsoft apps, etc, they collect data about you, otherwise, they get nothing from you.
Im claiming that microsoft doesn't spy on the user, and its true, because there is what they claim BY LAW in their EULA and privacy statements. If you can't accept the LAW as proof then you're probably mentally challenged unless YOU can prove otherwise.
>Subtle
Faggots are claiming on "spying", that is, getting personal data without consent. Only a moron would agree to an Eula and then complain about "spying". Spoiler: If you check the eula from every game, phone and service you use online, you would see how much date they get from you.

Not the guy your arguing with just want to put out:
I installed windows 10 pro creators update.
On end setup screen I turned off Cortana, location, basic tracking, basic telemetry, relevant ads (since it wouldn't actually turn off)

After awhile of using, it was obvious Cortana wasn't off as I got a message in my taskbar from Cortana asking where I want to go today as she could give me traffic updates.

Google'd a bit and it seems you can uninstall a lot of default apps through powershell including the Microsoft Store.

Large windows updates like the creators update can easily install new apps.

I'm telling you man,
DO NOT PUT YOUR CHILD PORNOGRAPHY PAYLOADS ON WINDOWS 10.

Congratz, by using Win 10 you are using a MS service, meaning all data on it (Atleast at a system level, though easily could apply to userspace as well) is legally available to MS
>Implying its okay when the terms are hidden or obscured into the fine print

Also have you even fucking read the Privacy statement?
Its fucking scary as hell
I don't care what you say MS shill, I'm not touching that shit with a 10 foot pole

>Windows 10 is free.
How so?

The Win8 drivers are linked on the release notes page

>using windows 8

Youre fucking retarded the drivers are there. Stupid gaymer.

Had the same issue with Nvidia, bought a GTX 1070... 8.1 Drivers were trash, switched back to 7 sadly... I hate this OS, it's slow and stutters a lot.

Windows 7 drives work fine.
There was no significant kernel update between 7 and 8/8.1 like there was between 8.1 and 10.

...

What's the problem with 10? I switched from 7 for DX and it just werks.

Kek, based amd

Thanks for this image, I now know how to fold a burrito

>I switched from 7
>For DX

No way to fix it since AMD does not support it
> tfw i'm also on win 8.1
Sad times.

windows 8 was the beginning of the end
windows 10 was the final nail in the coffin

Your as retarded as OP. The link for Win 8.1 is literally on main driver page.

assistive technology update. do it.

sonoda umi?

did you miss the memo when it was free? it was a free upgrade, heck they were supportive of it that they even allow pirated copies to update for free to a genuine one

guess you didnt get the memo

That's for Crimson you actual mongoloid
If you download Crimson it will just say that no drivers are available

Wtf! I'm with a nVidiot now!

>windows 8
Literally kys yourself

Try to extract the Windows 10 installer, modify the .inf file such that the Windows version 6.2/3 are referred to in the drivers. Then turn off driver signing and switch on test mode to install the modified drivers through device manager. Turn off test mode afterwards.

I want a legit Windows 7 Professional.
Post license d e s u.

Microsoft doesn't support 8 so why should AMD?

Give your email , and give evidence of this post is yours.

Maybe webm your screen, and reloading page to give proper proof.

8 and 10 are the same you dumb weeb
kys retard

if you concern privacy in win10
this is you should know

github.com/10se1ucgo/DisableWinTracking

Thank you sir please do the needful

W8.1 is unironically better than W7 and W10.

>toddler UI
>no drivers
>lower software support than even winblows 10
stfu you retarded sack of shit with double-down syndrome

Retard. Back to Sup Forums.

>Can't even fucking read
>Calls someone else a retard
See And just a single google search will show that AMD doesn't support Win 8 with the 580
I think you're the one that needs to go back to

You autistic shit it's the same shit as 480. Just get the driver for 480.
