I have a big bug when I connect my matrox MXO2 mini on my system load with windows 8.1.

An error appear :

page fault in non paged area (ACPI.sys) with a blue screen.

It's very troublesome because all computer of my business start with windows 8.1.

I need some help.

Thanks,

Mr ANNE

Move your host card to Pci-e 16X slot

Getting the same fault in Windows 8.1. Tried moving the host card to a 16X slot, but didn't change anything. My computer will only boot if the MX02 is unplugged.

Found a post of the Matrox tech saying Windows 8 is not supported at all.
Mad

It's only been out over a year now

Hello warlock257,

Matrox is looking into a Windows 8.1 driver. Significant changes in the MXO2 driver are needed, between our current drivers and drivers for Windows 8.1 to provide a stable and functioning release. We will officially have an announcement upon its release. Matrox thanks you for your patience, as we understand its importance to our loyal clients.

Regards

Vic

Please notify me when a stable (non beta) Windows 8 version is released. Thanks

Once released, we should have an official announcement. Again this would be for windows 8.1.

Problem is Vic, that by the time you guys release an 8.1 compatible driver, Adobe will launch CC Next (in fact, that's actually happening on the 18th of June) and I'm betting that your driver won't be compatible with that version of Premiere, which will suck just as bad! Sad

Adobe updates are easier to work with then Windows updates.

Once further news is available. We will post a message.

Hi, what's new for the MXO2 Windows 8.1 driver ? Any hope ? I bought the expresscard one year ago but I left it in my drawer from that time, alone in the dark...
Thx

Best to leave your machine with a windows 7 64bit partition. This would be the direction I would do if I was in your shoes owalbecq.
