Singed Driver for Windows 8 - 64

[ksm2353]

When I try to install the brick viewer under windows 8 the drivers is not installed  because the drives is not singed. 

 

What can I do to solve this issue.

 

I've installed the latest versions of the viewer and deamon.

On Windows 8 the Brick Daemon and Brick Viewer installers don't install any drivers, that's correct. There are two reasons for this:

 

1. The drivers aren't signed and Windows 8 doesn't allow to installed unsigned driver by default.

 

2. Windows 8 can auto detect a Brick and install it's own driver for it. You don't need the drivers that come with Brick Daemon and Brick Viewer on Windows 8.

 

If you connect a Master Brick (with a version 2 firmware) to USB, it'll show up as "Master Brick" in the USB devices category in the device manager. Now brickd should be able to find it and a connected brickv should show it.

 

If a Brick is in bootloader mode then Windows 8 will auto detect it as a serial port named "GPS Camera Detect". This serial port can then be selected in brickv for flashing.

 

Doesn't it work for you as described?
