Does anyone know if Dolby has released a Windows 8 fully compatible version of the CP750 Setup software?

Dolby has not posted anything yet...I'll wager it isn't high on their priority list, at this time.

I can't get windows 8 to connect via USB at all. I think it's something to do with the drivers.

The only way I've seen someone access a CP-750 using Windows 8 is by connecting
through another computer equipped with Team-Viewer or some other remote access
computer software. FOR EXAMPLE:

>Your TMS is running the cp-750 set-up software and also Team Viewer or similar
> You remotely connect to the TMS with your Windows 8 machine using Team
Viewer or other remote access software.
>You acccess the CP-750 set-up software on your TMS and control it remotely
using your Windows 8 computer.

Cumbersome, perhaps, but it works.

it works, you just have to tell windows 8 to accept non signed drivers. It was a matter of pushing a button with Windows 7, it is now unbelievably complicated with Windows 8. It may be better with Windows 8.1 - not sure.

Dolby have an instruction sheet for that.
