[Q] Fastboot and ADB on Windows 8.1

Search This thread
Hi,
this is my first thread in this forum.
First of all, sorry for my english but i'm italian.
Windows 8.1 don't recognize my Xperia P in fastboot or in ADB mode.
At the moment i have Honami 5.5 and Nemesis Kernel with CWM.. but, i can't flash anything with fastboot or with SonyUpdateService.
There is any solutions for this problem?
I just try the virtual machine with windows 7, but this solution doesn't work!

And you are using USB ? ports? USB 3 won't work, and have you read the faq on flashtool homepage for installing drivers on windows 8?

I don't have USB 3 on my laptop. With Windows 8, first, i was able to flash my Xperia. But now, the only solution was to install in a second partition on my HDD Windows 7, and flash with this OS.

Another time, sorry for my terrible english

win 8.1 is not win 8! It has a newer USB stack, and there are no solution for flashmode/ fastboot on it... yet
