When I bought this and installed it, it wouldn't work with Windows 8.1, is there some type of fix?

Hello Xavier, The PESA236 for Window 8.1 should work with Windows 7 drivers. Under device manager, is there a yellow exclamation mark for the product? Can you try downloading the drivers manually. To do so, have the cd in, under device manager, right click our product with the yellow exclamation mark and press update drivers. Click browse for drivers, and go to the path to your cd rom drive. Then follow the installation path for the drivers as the manual says. Please get back to us on whether or not this has fixed the problem. Best Regards, Koutech Customer Support

it works on Windows 8.0 but haven't tried with 8.1. I assume it should work with 8.1 as well.

I tried using on Windows 7 Pro and it didn't work. The version of the included software was outdated. Also, I have read where people couldn't get it to work on windows 8.1.

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.

I just bought it, plugged it into my Windows 8.1 system and it does not work. I'll write back if I ever learn how to get it to work. It's not worth having to send it back and wait. So, no- it does not work, accroding to MY experience. It is not recognized at all by my system no matter how I try to access or recognize it. It has zero directions for troubleshooting this issue.

I am using it on Windows 8.1 without any issues, so it should also work okay on Windows 8.

Yes, I have it running on Windows 8 and it should work just fine on Windows 8.1 but I have not actually tried it yet.

Can verify that it works on Windows 8.1 Pro. So it should work on 8.1, as the specs state no additional drivers are needed.

No, mine will not work with Windows 8.1 or 8 , I had to use my old windows 7 computer for it to be recognized and they give me no support for windows 8

I'm sure there is a way to make it work, however I wasn't able to properly install it on windows 8.1. But best of luck to you

I've use with Windows 7. Its a USB 2.0 hub I see no reason why it would not work with Windows 8.1 as Win8.1 should be backward compatible with USB 2.0 standards.

I'm using it with Windows 8.1. It'll work but it will tell you it needs to download some software i.e. drivers from Microsoft first.

Hi! I use it on Windows 8.1 and really like it. Win 8.1 upgrade is also great. Jim
