Mark first make sure you have the latest WIFlex driver installed.  Wayne 
(W5XD) posted on an other post the location of the new driver

https://writelog.com/flex1288b

It has full instructions.  While the some of the pictures are not 
current they are usable and you can get the idea.  And the instructions 
appear to be complete and quite extensive so hopefully that will help

Second the 8000 series of flex radios is mostly a new and faster bits of 
hardware and it is compatible with the 6000 series radios.  So I would 
not have any problems loading a program that says it is 6000 series 
compatible.  If anything, if it does not work just uninstall it .

Myself being new to the Flex radio (8400) search out information on how 
to do something, it is frustrating to see old information still posted, 
but knowing that the 8000 series is just an upgraded version of the 6000 
I have been able to get things to work.  It's a learning process and I'm 
plugging through it.

Hope I helped a little bit and good luck in your set ups
