Hi, It's not only because of signed driver, 

the qxl driver must be completly rewrited to be compatible with windows 8.

Hi 


On proxmox wiki https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/SPICE#Windows_8_32-bit, said " No digitally signed drivers packages public available", so is there any driver without digitally signed? how can I get it? I want to have it a try!

Win 8, 8.1, 2012, 2012R2 QXL doesn't exist and there appears to be no plan to start any on the Spice/Redhat lists. Similarly, the disk/net/mem drivers are very much 2nd class citizens. 

The ongoing disinterest in this leads me to question my decision to go with KVM rather than HyperV. 

Note: This is not a critisism of Proxmox, its not their job to maintain these drivers.
