Title: Easytune and Windows 8.1
Post by: Mopar63 on November 02, 2013, 01:32:08 pm
I have a Sniper M5 board and am running Windows 8.1 from a clean Windows 8.1 install. When I put in the App Center and install Easytune everything seems fine until I go to run Easytune. I get a small black bock with green text and a spinning circle that says Loading, please wait and nothing else. This will not go away until I go into task manager and end it. I have left it running up to an hour.

Is there an issue with Easytune and Windows 8.1 that is not documented?

Which one are you using the one from the disk or the site?

I never use the on disk drivers or utilities, always download the newest ones from the web site.

I have put on the newest BIOS, did base install with latest Chipset and NIC drivers and then installed the latest sound drivers from the site directly. Next I did a download and install of the AppCenter from the site and had it do the download of the utilities I was looking to use. When that fialed I uninstalled the apps and the app center and did the installs individually.

Same happens with me. Running Windows 8.1. Task manager kills it before it finishes loading.
