Cuteeditor not working in IE 11 after Patch

Our company just installed an IE 11 patch and it broke the CuteEditor that we are using for an internal ASP.NET 3.5 website. We have changed the X-UA-Compatible to IE11 and EDGE with no success. It works fine on our local machines, but does not work on the server. Our enterprise has Enterprise Mode and Compatibility mode setup for Intranet sites. After the patch installed, we no longer have the CuteEditor toolbar and the textboxes are readonly. It works fine in Chrome, but that's not really a viable solution for a large enterprise right now.
Here is a link to the MS for the patch that was installed
Can anyone shed any light on what we need to do?
We found a fix for the issue. We had to disable partial rendering in the update panels that the cuteeditor controls were in.

Limited browser functionality when developing in Windows 8

Has anyone else run into this problem and resolved it?
I am developing with Visual Studio 2010 in a clean install of RTM of Windows 8. While developing an ASP.NET application and RUNNING it with the Debugger Attached, I can not click on HTML links in ANY application and have it open up a browser window.
I will be running(debugging through VS) my application in Firefox, and I can't click on links sent in Google Talk or Outlook.
If I stop the application from running, I can then click on those links.
I have also seen that while debugging, I am using jQuery Drag-N-Drop HTML 5 functionality in my application. I can't use that functionality while it is running under the debugger, it just doesn't work. This happens with all browsers (Chrome, Firefox and IE). But if I stop debugging, and run it without the debugger on, it then works.
Any ideas?
Try to disable the debuging for "Javascript" in Visual Studio 2012.

Browser support for Crystal report viewer vs MS Reportviewer

I am planning to add report functionality to Asp.net internet web application. Looking for suggestions from others what report control to proceed with ? MS Report viewer or Crystal reports . I am concerned about scalability ,Browser support etc...
I've had trouble with SSRS reports in any browser but Internet Explorer. Crystal on the other hand i've had working well in Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
I don't think i'd use that as the main factor in deciding which reporting solution to use.

Set up IIS on Windows 7 Starter

I'm trying to set up IIS on Windows 7 starter for a client. I have it mostly working, however, it seems like my ajax requests aren't working. 'I tried to set it up through the "Add or Remove Windows Features" menu but "Web Management Tools" isn't included in the submenu. Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong or an alternative method? Thanks.
Edit
Solution
I ended up using UltiDev's Cassini server to solve this issue. It works with telerik and all of my ajax works. Thanks for the responses.
Windows 7 Home Premium is the edition that starts including those tools. You could use IIS Express instead.
This article shows how to install IIS in Win 7 (I believe it works in Starter as well). In addition, if you install WebMatrix, I believe you get IIS 7.5 with it that would work also. What about your AJAX requests isn't working?
Many tools are not available to the windows 7 starter edition.

Websites in Asp.Net does not work in Windows Vista

I have a strange question!
I have developed a website in asp.net webforms, I've tested this website in IE7, IE8, Ie9 (RC), Firefox, Chrome and Safari, in Windows XP and Windows 7. Everything works fine.
But in Internet Explorer in Windows Vista, does not working. The website opens in browser, but when the application needs a postback it does not work. I don't know why it is happening. If someone could suggest something to accomplish this? I appretiate!
Thank you!
Att,
Highly doubt it's the OS... Check your internet options...
A failed postback could be due to a javascript error. Have you tried using the Javascript console (Shift+F12) in IE8, or using Firebug Lite in versions lower than IE8? Could you turn off surpressing javascript error notifications to see if this presents the issue?
