It seems to be working Soft LCD shows but I can not find the 1884 control panel. Am I missing something?

    Five,
    You're on the "bleeding edge" here.
    In Sonar: Preferences>Audio>Driver Settings>ASIO Panel (its a button) doesn't work?
    Obviously the Control Panel shortcut on the board isn't working...
    What about the Windows "Control Panel", no FW1884 icon there?

Came down and booted up @ 7AM forgot I had to follow the advanced boot process was not getting no firewire signal begin to get discouraged then remembered I had to follow the advanced boot process (which sux that you have to do that everytime) but hey atleast I have sound.

    How are your latency with Win8? 

    I could not get it below 1000us with it, so I had to get back to Win7
    (also got a FW1884)

    Well I've not done any work yet. Listened to some songs I'm working on mixing so far so good. running 256 thus far. Should there be any issues I may jump back to 512. On the Motu & the 1884. Will keep you posted. I'm getting use to 8 a bit now that there's a work around. Will be perfectly content if I can get this next step of signing the drivers correct.

    Oh, sorry - I was a bit too quick there :)
    I meant DPC latency, please check with this tool:

    http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml
    It will probably show about 1000us - which is normal since win8 is not compatible with it yet. If you have a stable 1000us it probably is fine. 

    Then you can check the latency with this tool:
    http://www.resplendence.com/latencymon
    This shows the latency caused by which process, drivers and programs :)

    For instance, my Nvidia driver and FW driver was causing too much latency for me (in Win8)
    For you it could be completely different.
