I have seen many questions asking how to install universal naked drivers. Last week I received (loan) a windows computer and had the same issues. I decided to provide the info to help others.
Note: These drivers do work properly for the TF300T even though they may not state that exactly. Also if your tablet identifies as a TF201 it will still work properly.
Note: If you are on windows 8 and having problems please see the bottom of this post #1 for help! This info was provided by prototype7 please give him a thanks.
First some info. Windows thinks it should make the choices about drivers and is designed to keep us from choosing something that might cause problems. We need to maintain control through the process if we are to succeed.
Here are the choices I had to use to change my drivers and a link to the drivers.
windows-start - in search type device manager and return
right click on the entry you wish to change the driver for
Update Driver Software
Browse my computer for driver software
Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Have Disk
Browse
choose the universal naked drivers directory
click on the proper inf file
windows says drivers not signed; install anyway
Windows 8
Note: The following info was kindly provided by prototype7. Please give him a thanks.
if you deviate at any step windows will refuse to allow this change
Good Luck!

using this method you don't have to uninstall your current driverOriginally Posted by prototype7
I was trying to install these using this guide on Windows 8, but was running into a problem with the drivers not being signed, so here's the solution:
Hit Start+X, select Command Prompt (Admin)
Type "shutdown -o -r -t 0" (without quotes) and hit enter
You'll get a screen with some options on it after a few seconds
Click Troubleshoot
Advanced Options
Windows Startup Settings
Restart
You'll get a menu of options to choose from
Press the number on your keyboard for "Disable driver signature enforcement"
Now you can follow the guide without any issues, reboot again after the drivers are installed and you'll be good to go.
if you deviate at any step windows will refuse to allow this change
Good Luck!
