What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. fresh Windows installation with nothing at all installed yet - to prevent
any conflict
2. downloaded OpenNI_NITE_Installer-win64-0.27
3. installed openni-win64-1.5.4.0-dev.msi
4. installed nite-win64-1.5.2.21-dev.msi
5. SensorKinect092-Bin-Win64-v5.1.2.1.msi
6. plugged in Kinect for XBox360
7. downloaded and unpacked Processing 2.0b9
8. downloaded and deployed SimpleOpenNI-0.27.zip
9. reboot
10. from processing examples pocked SimpleOpenNI DepthImage
11. being desperate after spending almost a week on this
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i'm getting this in processing console
SimpleOpenNI Version 0.27
Can't open the depthMap, maybe the camera is not connected!
trying to run NiViewer64 gets me this error
One or more of the following nodes could not be enumerated:
Device: PrimeSense/SensorKinect/5.1.2.1: The device is not connected!
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 8 64bit
Please provide any additional information below.
the whole process works well in Linux Mint 15, i just need it under Windows. in
windows not even the green light on Kinect flashes

so windows 8 dose not like unsigned drivers,
Uninstall openni, nite, and the kinect driver.
Windows key + R to open the run prompt
shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
select troubleshoot
select advanced
select windows startup and then restart
enter the option for Disable Driver Signature
reinstall openni, nite, and the kinect driver
I followed those instructions and it worked for me I suspect that only the
driver needs to be re-installed, I also had to go in to device manager and make
sure it was pointed at the right drivers because I had installed the oppenni
sdk drivers and they don't work with processing.

thanks, i'll give it a try in the morning. i ended up using different library
for kinect though. i know it's unrelated to this topic, but it might help
someone.
1. installed OpenKinect drivers as described here
http://openkinect.org/wiki/Getting_Started#Driver_installation
(only the chapter Driver Installation, nothing else)
2. copied dLib freenect library to Processing. https://github.com/diwi/dLibs
no additional installation was needed. it suddenly worked as a charm.
i suppose also the drivers from the dLib freenect itself would work as
described in the step 1.

@ #1
Thank you very much. I pulled out more than a couple hairs trying to figure out
why I couldn't get this to work with Windows 8. Your procedure worked perfectly.

Thank you Matt8! Now it's working. I have tried on my windows 8. The
installation steps are same with Windows 7 (have tried before) after you enter
the option "Disable Driver Signature". Good luck everyone! :D
