I really really need my machine to come up on my new Windows 8 computer. Here is the breakdown of my equipment: Lenovo computer with Windows 8 64bit 07 Amaya XT Crossover Cable Realtek PCIe GBE Family Ethernet Controller Amaya OS V9 and Design Shop V9 Settings I have tried: Run as admin/ vista and Xp compatibility modes Ethernet card: updated driver, 10 half duplex, power management settings In adapter settings I have tried the typical setup and also tried ipv4 assignment of network address Turned off firewall and antivirus. I've been very careful with windows updates and also downloaded and installed new driver software for my dongles. I don't know what else to do. I have old v7 software I could give a try. Someone please help. I need this thing to happen if I'm going to have Christmas for my son. Any help greatly appreciated.
