is this window 8 combatible

Windows 8 will have the drivers, so this will work in a pinch, but your resolution and color scheme will be very basic.

Possibly in generic VGA mode, and don't expect gaming to work well. Finding drivers for something this old will be a challenge. I'd spend a few extra dollars and get something closer to current technology to ensure drivers are available.

I dont no cause i dont use Windows 8 i only use Windows 7 and xp but it do as r work on those

Marcia, I can't answer that, but from I see I don't think it's a problem as some others state that it doesn't work with windows 7 and it does. It may not be a board for gaming, but from my experience it's worth the shot for the price.

Not tried it but my guess is, no. It's way underpowered to run anything over 800x600 resolution and that's below the minimum for most Windows OS since...Vista. Might work in VGA mode, 640x480 but you can't 'use' Windows at that point.

We have several but we only use them on windows 7. I can't imagine any problems created by windows 8. I would suggest you buy one from Amazon and try it, if it doesn't work return it.

Yes it is as long as you can get the drivers for it. Window is discontinuing support for XP

Since I used this product successfully on Windows 7, I have no idea of its operation with Windows 8. Sorry.

Unfortunately, it is not. So you don't get some of the perks from Windows 8.

No - so you cannot take advantage of the Windows 8 touch-screen functionalities on this laptop

I don't really know as stated in the review I do not use this computer myself. But I can not see why you couldn't?. Am not sure about windows 8, just try and see what happens.

I don'think you should have any problems,assuming you are familiar with windows 8. That was my problem,as it was for me being a total novice when organs to this new program. Good luck.

No it isn't touch screen, and while the computer itself is a good value the Windows 8 is a frustration hassle to use. What were they thinking when they released it? Didn't they test it on consumers? Try to find a similar computer with Windows 7.

I had no problems with Win 7, did not try Win 8- it started to malfunction and I have not analyzed the problem yet- realized I was not going to use it as much because even with three screens(laptop and two others I can only really have two in content

Yes. It is very easy to run window 8 related program. If add 1000 gd outside hard drive and AT&T; hotspot, computer become a very powerful tool.

Not sure if you can downgrade it...but I can tell you this is an AWESOME machine! I would suggest getting this and learning Window 8...it is a bit of a pain to learn...but you'll soon discover that Window 8 is not as bad or as difficult as you might have thought and actually helps things work faster. Hope that helps you out.

NO! I wondered the same after I received it, good thing it crashed due to shipping or I wouldn't have gotten a refund.... Btw windows 8 blows....
