Focus Blue Braille Display, Windows 8 and Window-eyesDate:

Hello everyone.
Can someone confirm whether I have to locate a new driver for my Focus Blue braille display, so that If yes, IK can redirect my enquiry to Freedom Scientific.
I have installed Windows 8 on one machine, and hopefully a second this weekend.
Window-Eyes has been configured to operate my Focus Blue.
Software driver did seem to install correctly, but clunkily. The computer behaves as if the display is not being recognised, but there are no errors from Window-Eyes.
Because this is probably not strictly a GW Micro issue, I'd be happy to accept replies off list, and if I do need a new driver I'll negotiate with FS. there may of course be other Window-eyes users with the same problem.
Thanks.
Vaughan.
