I'm having problems getting this to work with Windows 8. Is there a new driver required or am I doing something wrong?

You're using Windows 8! JK. It workes great on my Win 8 rig. The drivers it installs are for the HDD itself. Try using a different USB port. If that doesn't work check the Disk Management utility for your HDD and go from there.

It does NOT work for me. I have 8.1 windows. I don't know how anyone else has gotten it to work

Was a tad bit wonky on first use. After I installed the driver/config software it work okay. What OS are you using? I am not sure if it is completely Win 8/8.1 compatible.

Nope. I haven't gotten it to work on windows 8. I probably downloaded over 5 drivers still didn't work. Only windows 7 I saw it work on.

I am using this with Windows 7. And, Windows automatically installed the drivers when I plugged the infra-red sensor into one of the USB ports. If Win 8 is not doing this, try plugging it into a different USB port. If Win 8 is asking for the drivers, then the device may not be compatible. I recommend contacting the manufacturer. Pam

It worked nicely with windows 8; I upgraded to windows 8.1 and it stopped working. I am an IT guy with many years of experience but I am not able to make it to work. Still waiting for AOC to do something about it, looks like a driver issue.

I'm currently using it with windows 8 x64. It does require some tweaking no matter which OS you use. (Follow the guide found in the comments for the item) 5 min of driver tweaking and it works perfectly!

If you windows 8 installed the drivers uninstall it from the "device manager" and install using the CD and run compatibility for windows 7... if that's not the case... try installing the drivers manually using .inf file or controller files

I have windows 8 and there really werent any driver installations to be done. You must have a ASIO driver and you can get that for free.

Works fine with Windows 8 for me. I did not have to install any drivers. Just plugged in the USB dongle and started using the Air Mouse and Keyboard.

I'm sorry I don't use Windows 8. But I checked with Windows XP and 7 works very well. Unless MS changed its design, usually it should work well.. This is my other device experience.

I stopped using it months ago but at the time there was no driver for Windows 8 and according to what I was told by their support desk there was no plan to provide one. I settled for using an HDMI cable to connect to my TV.

I am tempted to say that NOTHING works with Windows 8 ;) I have not tried it.

I had Win7 Pro x64 installed when I first used this adapter. I plugged it in and setup the driver, no problems. Later upgraded to 8 & 8.1. Check that your USB port isn't an issue? Try another port maybe. I used a 2.0 USB port.

I started having this issue when I updated to Windows 8.1. I assume it's a faulty driver or somesuch.
