[SOLVED] Windows 8 : NOTHING WORKS

Post by johnsudaar »

Hello.

First sorry for my english i'm french ...

Now, my problem :

It's pretty easy : On windows 8 NOTHING works.

The DVC3 installer run but the driver can't be installed.
And the DVC2 installer file is corrupt...

Anyone has a solution ?

The problem is that the drivers must be verified by Windows. We're in the process of applying for this. The only solution for now is to disable the driver verification:

1. Windows Key + R
2. Enter shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
3. Click the "OK" button
4. System will restart to a "Choose an option" screen
5. Select "Troubleshoot" from "Choose an option" screen
6. Select "Advanced options" from "Troubleshoot" screen
7. Select "Windows Startup Settings" from "Advanced options" screen
8. Click "Restart" button
9. System will restart to "Advanced Boot Options" screen
10. Select "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement"
11. Once the system starts, install the driver

Also, make sure you're using the latest beta of the software.

hmmm this was marked as fixxed. It seems to have been fixed in DVC3 but not DVC2. I'll make sure it's sorted in the next release
