Try upgrading to Windows 10. D3D11 in Windows 7/8 is missing Logicops

I'll try to test it in Windows 10 in this weeks.
I'll report back my results in Windows 10 when I test it in that OS.

It did work in Windows 10.
But it's working now in Windows 8.1 as well.
It may have been a problem with the previous updates or driver?
The only significant thing that I have installed is the last batch of updates via Windows Update.
