What is a good browser to use for windows 8? I'm using internet explorer and it s@#Ks It keeps giving me error and closes the web pages on a lot of the sites I go to. I can't even go to modhoster it won't even open the page.

I use Google Chrome for just about everything these days. I'm not on Win 8, but Chrome works well on 7 and 10

Upgrade to Windows 10 farmboy and then you have the greatest browser ever! EDGE!!!! imo. REMEMBER: Only FREE until July 29, 2016!!! Take the offer now! You won't regret it! I am using it and it is AWESOME! Internet Explorer was my favorite and now Edge is my all time favorite. Chrome is a little overrated imo.

Windows 10 has a lot of bugs from what I've heard? And how well does fs2015 run on it? And don't you have to update a lot of drivers and stuff if you switch over to windows 10? That always takes forever to update all that stuff. I like good old windows 7 I knew my way around it a lot better then the new ones.

Windows 10 is solid as a rock with FS15 and all other games I play including Prepar3D.

Yes it plays very very well with Farm Sim. I does NOT have bugs anymore, they fixed that in update 1511, which I highly recommend updating to when you update. Drivers, no, just the graphics drivers and then you should be good. With Windows 7, Windows 10 is newer more future proof, and it almost exactly like Windows 7. Just say, Windows 7 and 8 had a baby together. You'll get along just fine Windows 10 support ends in 2025 which is a long ways, but 7 eek, only 4 more years until bye bye, so I would upgrade now, because it is free and it only lasts for so long, plus you will be FULLY updated and current. Trust me, it didn't take a whole lot of time for me to that stuff. If you have ANY QUESTIONS OR PROBLEMS YOU ENCOUNTER, plus feel free to PM me

That is very true! Agreed

yeah well we will see about that I had to revert back to 7 when I had 10 the first time because NVidia driver freezing up my computer and blue screening in games NVidia site forum showed no solutions to fix issue at time with people having same issue and everyone was reverting back to 7 with no more issues so I did to with same Results no more issues but with windows 10 only being free for a few more months I decided to go back to 10 only time will tell if it is truly fixed

Definitely upgrade to W10.

Personally I use opera (which has chrome internals) and white hat aviator as browsers.I don't like MS Edge or Internet explorer.

W10 does not cause application errors. You need to update all applications and drivers to run under a W10 environment. If you are having major issues with any software one upgrading to W10, seek out the provider of the software who will have patched or updated their software for sure if they are any good.

Agreed

If you have any questions about security and other problems, I would recommend going to www.tenforums.com/, they are the top solution for Windows 10.
