In 64bit Windows 8.1, you have to disable the driver signature enforcement to install the driver.
Here are the instructions how to disable the driver signature enforcement in Windows 8.1:

I think you download the latest software package and the driver from:
velleman.eu/support/download … 1000&type=
You can use the driver: “PCGU1000 USB driver for Windows XP (32- and 64-bit) / Vista (32-bit) / Windows7 (32-bit)”
This driver can be used after the “workaround” for 64-bit Windows 8.1 too.
In the software package there are three files:

- Run this software to install the PcLab2000SE v4.05
[color=#000080]Release Notes.pdf[/color]
- Includes instructions how to update the USB driver.
- Please see this section: “Workaround to use the PCGU1000 on 64-bit Vista or Windows 7”
Works also for Windows 8.1.
[color=#000080]CP210x_VCP_Win2K_XP_S2K3.exe[/color]
- Follow the instructions in the Release Notes.pdf and run this program to get the PCGU1000 working on 64-bit Windows 7, 8 and 8.1.
Here you can download detailed step-by-step instructions how to install the USB driver in Windows 7, 8 and 8.1: box.com/s/vh9olqyx3idhhxn8ujwm
The instructions are for other product but the installation principle is applicable for PCGU1000 too.
