When installing Windows 8, one of the biggest challenges was getting my ATI display drivers to work. Of course, the generic display was installed, but none of the ATI CC functions worked, especially the images were not as sharp and sharp as under Windows 7. When I connect my LED TV via HDMI cable, the resolution was totally confused. I spent hours taking her to work.

Until recently, we used the IPv4 version, which provided us with a 32-bit address. But these available addresses will soon be out of stock. The new version of IP, i.e. IPv6, offers us 128-bit addressability, which means more addresses are available and would make the Internet more secure (better network security) than the previous version of IPv4, with better quality of service and other features such as mobility support, multicast support.

IPv6, the successor to the protocol currently used on the Internet, was developed in the late 1990s but has not yet been used worldwide.
