Hi All,

Is there a way to get the guest additions (spice-guest-tools-0.74.exe)
to work with the original Windows 8.0 (no service packs, just
Frankenstein himself off the OEM CD).  I am trying to get the
video driver to install and it keeps telling me I have the wrong
version of Windows.

Many thanks,

there is no QXL driver for Windows 8 available yet. The QXL driver is
built on top of XPDM API that is not available in Windows 8 anymore. The
new QXL driver based on more recent WDDM API is not available yet
unfortunately so you're stuck with vga driver on Windows 8 guests.

That explains it.  Thank you.
