Microsoft is currently working on Windows 8 operating system for mobile devices,tablet or smartphone, which uses the ARM processor architecture. Microsoftplans to make mobile devices Windows 8 is not able to load the other OS.

In the document Windows 8 Hardware Certification Requirements, the giantsoftware company states that the system is in tablet or smartphone ARMWindows 8, the user is prohibited to enable the Custom Mode, only the StandardMode can be enabled.

This means that Windows-based mobile devices 8 are not allowed to run otherOS outside of Windows 8. Microsoft asserts, tablet or smartphone vendors who want to adopt Windows 8, must implement secure boot that allows you to lock thebootloader.

Well, the secure boot bootloader is what prevents the installation of another operating system on mobile devices Windows 8.

For users who like to research and build the device, it certainly is not pleasantnews. Microsoft claims that this is done to safeguard users from malware attacksoutside parties.
