How do i change my xbox gamer tag on my windows 8 computer? - iron_metallica21 - 02-17-2013 12:28 AM
I just got a new Dell with Windows 8 and when it asked for an email I gave it a different email than I use for xbox live. it gave me a default gamer tag and said I could change it once for free. so I looked online on how to change it and it says to start by hitting the home button on my keyboard while in the Games app. I hit the home button and don't see a menu like it describes. how do I change it
