Hi to all!
If you have error msg during TAP-driver installation on win 8.1 (after you've instal OpenVPN 2.3.5 once or meni times may be).
Don't cry and do this:
1. go to Control panel --> Device Manager --> View --> Show hidden devices
2. Delete "Unknown device" in Network adapters (if you have it) or Microsoft ISATAP Devices
3. Run "cmd" with administrative rights, cd to C:\Program Files\TAP-Windows\bin
4. Run addtap.bat - it will install TAP driver with success.

Good luck
