Hi nwells,As you know Windows 8 will officially be released on OCT 26, 2012. The Dell Vostro 3450 does support upgrading to Windows 8.  You will have to wait for full drivers support from OCT 26, 2012.Please reply for any queries.
Hello, I am running Windows 8 on my Dell Vostro 3450 and there are two major issues: Secondary video card (AMD ATI Radeon) doesn't work, which seems to be a known issue ([URL]#3450). But something not on the list of known issues is that my computer runs hot - and I mean the fan going full blast all the time. This can't be good for my computer, and I would assume it is a problem with drivers or something since in Windows 7 my computer was fine. So my question is, will these issues be resolved for the Vostro 3450? Is Dell really going to be releasing drivers before October 26th, 2012? I really like Windows 8, it is faster than Windows 7, but if Dell cannot resolve these issues on the Vostro 3450 it will be a shame - I only bought the 3450 a year ago and I really feel like I should be able to run Windows 8 on it (I have an i7, still very fast!).  Thanks, Nathan
