Does anyone know how to get this to work in win8? I've had one for several years and it's always worked with winXP and win7.

Check for updated drivers for the USB... might have to call Belkin for updated software/drivers ... I know... I know... it's usb... should have the drivers installed right / backward compatible?? Might want to try to update the hub as well... When I bought mine years ago.. it had already been outdated by the standards of that day. I now use a wireless router with the USB ports built in... So MUCH BETTER! ... and you can network the item.. instead of waiting on the item to wake up from sleep mode....

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.

It's avertised to work with WINDOWS XP. I a'm currently using it with WINDOWS 7 PRO. That's probably why I had to download new drivers. Good luck!

I have windows 7 and it worked fine with that. Do not have an answer for Windows 8. Sorry. Probably should contact the seller.

Yes, I have it in a computer running Win 8 and it works better with Win 8 than with Win XP.

Gerry: I've got it installed on WINDOWS 7...but never use it. I'm using it on my WINDOWS XP (another computer) and it works just fine. I've had problems installing on "7"....and if that's the only thing you have.....good luck. I was just patient and kept at it after "7" was telling me to forgot it. But I did get a correct install.

I got it to work on Windows 7 with the drivers that come on the disk, so it should work with win 8. Drivers are a problem with this product, as the latest ones coming from the chip manufacturer don't work with it.

I'm using it with Win 7 on one comp and XP on the other and it works fine. Not your exact question, but I hope that helps.

Yes, I have it working fine with Win 8.1 x64, it was completely plug and play. I've only been using them for a week, but I am impressed so far.

I've not used it on Win 8; only Win 7, but certainly it should work on Win 8.

Hi. It's been awhile since my purchase and I gave it as a gift. From my understanding, it did not work with Windows 8. Hope this helps.

Hi David---I don't know the answer myself, but I found a Microsoft website that says this works with Windows XP 32 bit only. I would want to see what other people have to say about it as well.

Mine works perfectly with Windows 8. I have had no problems on any version of Windows.

I have Windows 7, and it works with that. I don't know if it works with later versions of Windows.

Works perfectly with Win7. The change log for the drivers on the TrackIR site indicates they added Win8 support in October of 2012. I've never personally tried to run it on Win8, but it's a very simple USB device, so I can't imagine it wouldn't work.

I wish I had an answer to help out - I am running win 7. The product works, though.
