    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    Move from Windows 8.1 to 8

    I've used this before and it does work.

    Also, if it doesn't work correctly in 8.1 it will more than likely be broken in Windows 8 as well.
    It's possible that the driver is conflicting with something else you have installed.

    NVIDIA Releases WHQL-Certified GeForce Drivers for Windows 8

    I wonder why Vista and Windows 7, as well as Windows 8, are listed in the .inf if it is only for Windows 8?
