Oh, I thought it was all optimized for touch, or something.
thats where people are wrong. There is a site somewhere with an iso that gives you a 90 day trial of the enterprise version. I would reccomend giving that a go, although you may lose your files, although some OSs can let you keep your files (Vista home premium doesnt) and if you wanna revert, you have to either input a serial code for the full version or revert to factory settings. Maybe finding another iso of your previous OS will work...
I found a free app on the store called "Steam Tile" which makes live tiles for your home screen. As seen in my earlier pic, the tiles looked crappy, but this changes them. You just click and they appear. Making them live will show your achievements and playtime and disabling the live tile just makes the game tile. You can make them 2 blocks or 1. Screenshot:

Yes, clicking them launches the game
