Windows 8 + Kensington Dock

Lumenii · 06-16-2012, 08:56 PM

Hi all, I have a Kensington Dock (Model No. M01065; "
Universal Notebook Docking Station with VGA/DVI and Ethernet").

I've used it successfully for almost two years with Windows 7, and have been trying to set up up for the Developer/Consumer Preview since they were released. I have tried the drivers posted in this forum, as well as the v6.3 release on the software downloads page.

Is this a case where the dock just isn't going to be compatible with Windows 8?

Hi

I'm afraid, due to the complex auto install on this dock, it will not be compatible with our Windows 8 driver. When auto install was designed, it was not designed to be compatible with future operating systems.
