Trouble installing new drivers (Win8.1)

Shane:
What do you have the user access control set to?

It's set to the default setting -- Notify me only when applications make changes to my computer.

In Windows 8 we cant turn off the UAC like we could before. Even when the bar is all the way down it simply doesnt prompt you but it is still on. The only way to turn it off is by a registry key, which is what I have done on my system. When you do that you cant use the app store, but for now I want to do a test.

I want to totally disable the UAC with the reg setting and turn the bar all the way down, reboot and then have you try your stuff again and see how it goes.

You ok with doing that? If so I will get you the regkey you need.
