I just finished installing SONAR X3c on a newly-built machine running Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit. Everything works great, EXCEPT the TranzPort 1.5.0 64-bit driver. At the end of the installation, it indicates "Can't install driver on this version of Windows."
 
Everything was working perfectly on my Win7 Pro 64-bit machine. Did I paint myself into a corner by choosing Windows 8.1? Is there a method for installing legacy drivers under Win 8.1? Or, has this trusty TranzPort seen its last days as part of this rig? (That would be a shame. It has been a fantastic productivity tool).
 
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Yes there is no Tranzport driver for windows 8 and windows 8.1 unfortunately.
I hope they build one cause it`s a nice piece of equipment.
Peace

Same issue with my Alphatrack. There hasn't been any activity on the Frontier Design website for ages.

I had to install my Tranzport in a compatibility model (I don't remember but I think it was Vista).  It works in both Windows 7 64 bit and Windows 8/8.1 64 bit.

Hi folks,
My Alphatrack is working great on my Windows 8.1 (x64) box. Here's how (I cribbed this from another site on the interwebs):
 
If you want to install Frontier Alphatrack you must deselect "install device driver" in setup or it will quit with "not for this os".
Then simply goto Programs/Alphatrack and rightclick inf-file->install. Works perfectly!
 
I would suspect that this method would work for the Tranzport as well.
 
Good luck
Dean

My alpha track works with Windows 8.1.
 
I have to plug it in directly to the computer. I can't plug it in through the Monitor's USB ports. But other than that, it works fine.

I have no problems with the drivers under windows 8.1 x64 though I needed to set the compatibity mode to windows 7 so that the installer will run.

Right click on the driver installer exe
Select properties from the context menu
On the compatibity tab check "run this program in compatibity mode for"
Change the compatibilty combo box to windows 7
Click apply and then okay
Double click the exe to run

I'm glad this problem is solvable, for the time being anyway. 
 
FYI, when it became apparent there would be no more updates, I replaced my Tranzport with an iPad running V-Control Pro, and have been very pleased.
 

I tried the V Control Pro, free version, and didn't like it.  Ney-Fi corrupted my iLok as I would get a message when booting up the PC that iLok could not be activated on more than 1 PC.  When I uninstalled Ney-Fi the iLok problem went away.  I also had to delete my Behringer BCF2000 from the control surface list as I had to install the V Control Pro as a Mackie (what the BCF2000 uses). 
Finally, there is no option to have a footswitch for punch in with the V Control Pro and iPad. 
 
 
 

Thanks guys. Looks like my Alphatrack isn't dead after all.
