Using vSphere 6 windows client on Windows 8.1 to access VCenter and ESXi 5.1 U2 VMs ?

People,

How can I use the latest vSphere 6.0 windows client to access the VCenter 5.1U1 & ESXi 5.1 U2 VMs ?

is there any tricks or tweak to make it working, because ever since I upgrade my workstation to Windows 8.1, my vSPhere console is only showing black screen.

Thanks

As per Solution Interoperability matrix vSphere 6 VI client is not compatible with vCenter and ESXi 5.1U2. Please try to install corresponding VI client and access the console.
