Be sure to check if there's official updates in Windows 8.
This fix is provided on Dec 1, 2012.

Run sd8686win8_fix.exe with administrator priviledge.
Right click exe, and select run as...

In retail version of Windwos 8, SD8686 does not work.
This fixes SD card and Wlan driver, and also includes fix for hibernation.

This tool will overwrite SD driver files, and then installs ver 8.75.813.830 driver
for SD8686. If you don't use hibernate, you can use 8.114.xxx.xxx driver (install yourself).
8.114.xxx driver have some problem disabling device, and never goes to hibernate.

ver 8.75.xxx driver also have problem with hibernate. It does hibernate, but
doesn't come back after resume, and ends up in BSOD with power control failure.

Service program is included to disable SD8686 before going to hibernation, and
enabling after hibernation. This will restore WLAN after resuming from hibernation.

Tested with Viliv N5. Different patch available for Willcom D4.

Thanks for people providing info.
