WDK 8.0 Driver Samples

Question
-
Hi,
Im having troubling finding the WDK 8.0 driver samples compatible with Visual Studio 2012. It appears that the driver samples available are only supported by Visual Studio 2013 Preview and WDK 8.1 Preview.
Are the older versions of the samples (for the current release of Visual Studio) still available for download? The one in particular im after is the minispy file system driver but it would be great to know where others are. From what I can see posted on other sites, there was a older version of this sample available but I cant seem to find where it is.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Matt

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System and Visual Studio Editor.
And I will your question to the moderator forum ("Where is the forum for..?"). The owner of the forum will also direct you to a right forum.
