  • Is GA-EX58-UD5 compatible with Windows 8.1?

    I want to move from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1 since I'm software developer and lately working with Metro Apps a lot. Want to move from using W8.1 on virtual PC to W8.1 as my main system.

    The problem is on the Gigabyte page there are no drivers for W8.1 x64 at all. Anyone tried using GA-EX58-UD5 with windows 8.1 and what drivers have you used?
