Win8 problem and brain problem (installed Clip+ firmware on Clip)

I’ve been using my Clip with WinXP, just got a Win8 machine, Win8 says “USB device not recognized.” Taking a wild guess what to do, I return to the XP machine and update the firmware, but… got sloppy and updated Clip to Clip+ firmware (V01.02.18A the Clip says). Did some other stuff… including reformatting the Clip… XP machine still seems to like it… Win8 still seems to hate it. Next steps? _ Thanks! _

This is physically impossible. You must be mistaken. One player will not accept the firmware written for another. It will simply ignore it.
