we just bought a golden laser fabric laser cutting machine and we are using windows 8. i cant seem to get the softdog driver or usb driver installed..i install the softdog driver and it tells me its installed but it doesnt show in my device manager.. after its installed the computer should have detected the laser and automatically installed the usb driver but it doesnt.

the software says windows 7 and i know im using windows 8 but that shouldnt be a problem right? i used windows 8 compatibility settings and still no luck...anyone have any ideas?
