GA-Z68MX-UD2H-B3 3TB+ Unlock Application for Windows 8

[Halaster]

Hey there, I am wondering when you plan on releasing the 3TB+ Unlock application for Windows 8.

All the critical drivers have been released which was great to see, but installing the current 3TB+ Unlock application from windows 7 will actually completely crash Windows 8, resulting in a BSOD and reboot.

The same problem has existed on all different preview versions of the OS. Until it is released I am locked out of half of my hard drive.

Still waiting for feedback on this.

It has been another week, so just updating that I am still waiting for a reply to this.

Is anything being done to fix the 3TB+ application for Windows 8. It causes a blue screen and hard reboot.
The last release for it was nearing a year ago and it was one of the key features advertised for this motherboard.

Still looking for a response on this. Still need a new version of the application to be able to access my data.

While this is considered an "official" gigabyte forum, it is intended for peer to peer community support - gigabyte users helping gigabyte users. While some gigabyte staff might post here from time to time, there is no one waiting to give official answers to questions like these. You might want to contact gigabyte directly for these sort of questions. These links might help.

@Alex Ahh, thank you very much for the links. I will try those links.

I generally use a support forum that way when a solution is provided, others who encounter a problem can easily find the result as well.
With the retail release out soon this problem should become more widespread and no solution in sight. There are not even 3rd party options that can be used to try to mitigate it. It is a completely broken advertised feature.

Edit: I went ahead and submitted the support ticket. If there is any update I will post it here for anyone else who may encounter this.
@Ben, unfortunately the download at that site is actually older than the one on their official site.
