I have the FS88 installed on Windows 8.1. Once you receive the unit, there is a paper that tells you to email the manufacturer. Once you've done that, they'll send you a link to the drivers. I had no problem installing and the scanner has been working without problem for over 6 months.

I have not personally tested it out on Windows 8 since I do not have a machine with it, but from what I read it should work fine. I know it works on Windows 7 x64 and Linux Mint 13 x64.

Not only will FSX run on windows 8.0 but also windows 8.1. However, I see the picture of Flight Simulator 2004 and I've had some difficulty with FS-2004. I've been told that you can run 2004 but it maytake some very good technicians to set it up and they will have to have knowledge of Flight Simulator Programs, FS-2004 and older.......Thanks,

It works at the hardware level. Windows 8 will see whatever is plugged into it as USB devices.

Actually it did work on Windows 8. I used Windows 8 Pro edition for a week but then I decided to just downgrade it to Windows 7( Don't like Metro Features). I never had any problems using it though. Just plug n play.LED lights worked fine. What I can recommend is, make sure you update all your drivers and download all necessary files needed for Windows 8 for your motherboard. Also, you might wanna check Saitek/Madcatz website if they have drivers of your keyboard or mouse for Windows 8. Just saying, there might be. but on my case I didn't install any.

I got it working on the windows 10 technical preview, it should definitely work on windows 8. Make sure you update the software from the Astrogaming website. Not much of a big deal though.

I use only Win7, so I cannot vouch for Win8.1...but all the keys below the top row of special function keys will certainly work as usual. The F1-F12 keys should work as usual (according to the application being run) but the alternate functions of those keys (e.g. Search, eMail, Volume, play, stop, rewind, etc) will likely not work unless the proper driver is installed. I do not know if a driver for Win8.1 is available.

I am using it on Windows 8 Pro. I have been using it with no problems for a week now. You could always run it in compatability mode if you need too.

Youtube has a video showing how to get it to work on windows 8.1. Need to download the nostromo speed pad software 3.2 from belkin. To get it to work go through the nostromo editor...there is a loadout blue button at the top of the editor software. Don't go through the "blue" nostromo loadout manager.

Oh heck yah....Toontrack has awesome support...everytime I had a problem it was alwaus that I didnt read the manual...which no one does lets face it....support was always perfect ..within a business day....windows 8 is actually better for high end power users in Audio and Video, because it does not turn the pocessors cores off like windows 7 does

I am running windows 8.1 and it works, but the bomb factory plugins don't all work. Just let the sofware load without it. It works great for my system. There are plenary of others that do work; all in all it is complacated to install, just follow the instructions. Bomb factory may all work with windows 7.

I have Version 9 and it works with Windows 8. I also have Halmark Studio 2012 and it also works with Windows 8. Both worked on my old computer with Vista.

I'm running mines using Windows 8. It brings the Serato Itch software but if you go on the Setato website you'll find an archive of Serato versions available for download for free.

I would believe so, I use it on my Mac for Garageband and Ableton. I would think it would work, but I don't have a computer with windows 8 to be 100% sure. Sorry I couldn't more concrete.

It works with Ubuntu, Fedora, Slackware, Gentoo, Slitaz, Puppy, and Lunar Linux on both 32 and 64 bit versions, but I have no idea if it will work on Windows 8 as I do not use it ... odds are good though.

It does work with Windows 8 with default Drivers, I don't think Microsoft had made new drivers available for MAC. You might have to use built in default Drivers to make it work. Also without Microsoft Driver suppose you will not have FORCEFEEDBACK feature turned on.

i could not get it to work. I think my unit has a defective aileron switch but the program itself is not compatible. If you have any kind of older windows XP comp that would be better that way, you can run FMS program for free, which DOES work. Otherwise you are pretty much stuck with having to pay for one of the more expensive simulator programs.
