Zeagle N2ition and Download to Windows 8

[eweingarden]

I have a Zeagle N2ition. I had been downloading my dives onto a PC with Windows XP, using APEKS Dive Log software. I now have a new laptop with Windows 8. Does anyone know if the Zeagle, it's download cable, and APEKS are compatible with Windows 8? Thanks.

Search ScubaBoard threads and you will find that the N2ition and 3 are not supported by windows 7...hence one would think win 8 is a wash as well. Keep your ole XP chugging along for your N2ition. I didnt get the closepin cable just because of the lack of support after XP.

Tried it myself on Windows 7 with no luck.

Try to install a virtual machine inside windows 8 that will run windows XP.

Step by step how to do it:

Another way to do this using Hyper-V

or Downgrade your windows 8 to Windows 7 and read below how you can run Windows XP like you used to :

Hope that one of these works for you.
