Windows 8.1 will not recognize 240G OCZ RevoDrive 2X

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

This is where I had FSX installed with Windows 7 Home Premium.

 

I have all latest drivers, and firmware downloaded to desktop but cannot install on 8.1. Have tried everything, but nothing works. Have searched everywhere and have not found a viable solution.

 

Any of you gentlemen have a solution?

 

Kind regards,

Hi Stephen,

 

I saw the word "gentlemen" so I jumped immediately into action. I do not see where your SSD is compatible with Windows 8 (yet). So, I doubt you can install the latest drivers/firmware. I doubt Ocz will make this product compatible with Windows 8 as this is how they make their billions.

 

Did you run the compatibility check - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/CompatCenter/Home? I have an Ocz SSD installed and it is not compatible with Secure Boot and will not work in Windows 8.1. I did a compatibility check for your SSD and it did not have any info which means it is probably not compatible.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Best regards,

Jim

I just thought of another thing. You might be able to install the drivers/firmware by turning off driver signing - http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how-to-disable-driver-signature-verification-on-64-bit-windows-8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/.
