Yes it does come with keyboard and mouse. Some games are not compatible with windows 8 so you will need to check what game it is you want to play. Some games have patched for 8 and some have not. But the games that are compatible play just fine in windows 8.

Yes it comes with a mouse and keyboard from ibuypower not the best quality but if you don't have one it works great. It actually comes with windows 8.1 it's mostly the same but there may be a few program that might have a few problems with it but for the most part everything works perfectly and I have not seen it affect any gameplay at all

The keyboard & mouse are included. Windows 8 doesn't seem to affect gameplay.

I will work, there were others that have asked this question, in almost the same fashion as you have asked. I run this on Vista 64 and it does fine. You don't loose anything, and I think I've read it also works on Win8 too. You can still use the keyboard commands for it, though its biggest issue is some of the games have sticky key issues, making it difficult to play them, and that is a quirk of the game that was never corrected as far as I know.

I have NOT played it on Windows 8; I have been playing it on Windows 7 Professional and it runs pretty smoothly....

This mouse works with Windows 8 without any problems. (at least I have not experienced any)

Yes it does. I believe I had to go in as the administrator after installation and force it to run in Windows XP mode, but have had absolutely no problems running this game on Windows 8.

Yes it does, I bought my windows 8 laptop within the year and am able to run this game fine.

You can use the keyboard and mouse. I recommend it actually. Makes it easier I think. I will say that you need a fast cpu and good graphics card or it will be more difficult as the pixels wont flow as well and it will b jerky.

I have Windows 7 and it works fine. Hope you enjoy the game as much as I do

It works fine. The button that would access the Start Screen page in Windows 8 just makes the Start menu pop up in Windows 7 ... all other functions work just like a regular mouse.

I'm using Windows 8.1 and it works great. You won't be able to stay on the game with CTRL/Tab, but if you save and restart every time you stop playing it will do fine.

I played this for the first time last night, and although you can run it entirely from the mouse, I think it works best with keyboard and mouse. This is especially true given that weapon/potion/spell icons appear in a line down the left side of the screen, and I have a very wide LCD screen, putting the icons so far into my peripheral that I have to turn my head to see them.

Yes......I have windows 8.1. And I play combat arms all day with it..... works great... like a charm... I love it

Yes, besides the touch screen this is just like any other regular laptop. Moreover, windows 8 enables user to use the mousepad completely if one doesnt want to use the touch screen. Hope this helps.

Yes. Currently I am playing it on Windows 8 in XP service pack 3 mode (right click on program launch file and go to 'Compatibility' tab).

Yes, not a problem at all. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro. Never had a problem. Best investment on my gaming PC I've ever made.

Yes. Windows 8 does not require the touch screen to function but is designed to work with one. You can just as easily use your mouse and keyboard for typical functions.
