> Talking about 8, not 8.1 Windows 8.1 Update is basically a roll-up update service pack to Windows 8 and is a free upgrade. That's like complaining that the released patches work on XP SP2/SP3 but not the original XP. If someone fails to update Windows 8 to 8.1 Update or has magically written software that works on Windows 8 but not 8.1 Update, it's on them. >Many drivers tend to break as windows goes through changes. When I tried a preview of the windows 10 creators update I had a driver stop working right. There were also serious nVidia problems that broke the old driver versions; imagine that happening with your typical company that stops providing drivers after a year. Those drivers are typically either using bad coding practices or relying on unsupported features or bugs. Maybe you should contact them as a customer and let your displeasure known. If enough people do that they may actually do something about it.
