    Hi All, I have an Alienware 14 ALW14-2814sLV and I am trying to connect my windows phone 8, what worked perfect when using windows 7, in windows 8 and it is not working

    In my device manager I get in Portable Devices a issue with MTP USB Device. Also when I try to install de driver to windows 8 from dell (Intel(R)_USB_3.0_eXtensible_Host_Controller_Driver) it shows that my computer does not meet the minimum requeriment for that.

    Can you help me guys ?
