Windows 8 on WS460c Gen8

Hi

 

I need windows 8 / 8.1 drivers for WS460c Gen8.

Espcially the Nvidia driver.

 

There's no official windows 8 drivers on hp.com.

 

Thanks

OK..this is officially not supported; but you know that already..!!

 

Try the driver of Server 2012. It should work.

Re: Windows 8 on WS460c Gen8

Did you try the drivers from nvidia directly?

If this is a "normal" PCIe card in the expansion chassis, the desktop driver should apply, I guess.


Drivers for your card and os version are listed there.

They have win 7,8 and 8.1 in the same bundle.

 

Example:

 

http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/77637/en-us

 

 

 

BTW, I noticed a new download option there, drivers for blade embedded cards (actually notebook MXM cards for the WS460c Gen8 expansion blade with a unique product id (different from notebook and desktop)).


Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
