VA and Windows 8.1

Post by kiwigeo » Wed Dec 24, 2014 8:25 pm

Anyone here running VA with Windows 8.1?

I had VA running ok under Windows 8.0 but after upgrading to 8.1 Im having issues. When I start a spectrum capture run the spectrum window comes straight away rather than after sampling 10 buffers. Ive changed none of the settings on VA..only the OS has changed.

Try turning "User Account Control" off. (It's in --> Control Panel --> User Accounts --> Change User Account Control settings)

or

Right click on the Shortcut that runs the program and run it in Windows 7 compatibility mode.

0r

Right click on the shortcut that runs the program and select "Run as Administrator".
