windows 8 CP GUWAVKIT2
 

Hi,
I'm trying to install IOGEAR GUWAVKIT2 on windows 8 CP. USB dongle drivers installs perfect, but there is no displaylink usb video adapter in device manager, also there are no unknown devices. I have also installed displaylink beta 2 software, but that didn't change anything. Adding support tool info. Any help would be appreciated

Hi,

I think you may have the same problem as described in this thread http://www.displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1339 - I'd get in touch with IOGear to see what their plans are for Windows 8 support.

Thanks for reply.
The link you provided describes problems with usb wireless device, but in my case I have problems with displaylink drivers. They doesn't install new video device...

P.S. Tried also Devolo Vianect (which is same device in my opinion) and same issues as with IOgear device.

The video device will not appear in device manager until the device has first been correctly recognised by Windows as a usb device. There is no evidence in the logs attached that the device has appeared as a usb device. DisplayLink devices when working correctly have (at least) two entries in device manager, one for the usb device and one graphics device.

The problems described in the thread linked to by JamesH are about IOGear USB drivers not working which is a prerequisite for our display drivers working.

Hi, I have the same problem, the USB device is not recognized by windows. My product is Guwavkit3, please JamesH, JonD, Win, help us with this inconvenient, we would like you get it touch with IOGEAR team about this compatibility problem with Windows 8.
You are the only ones who can talk to IOGEAR Team for an beta upgrade as DisplayLink Certified for this products, I guess IOGEAR must be in the same update level as you.
We hope that these updates are available asap!.
We would really apreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
