Yes I have been running it under windows 8 for months now without issue (I have burned at least 20 each of DVD and Blue Ray Disks).

Yes. I have windows 8.1 - no conflicts at all. you just need blu-ray playing software. some things come with the drive, but I can't recall if the media player was there. Also, if you don't have a proper video card with HDMI out the playback will not work because of the high data stream rate. So double check your graphics card can handle it. You don't need anything too fancy to upgrade your graphics card if necessary.

It works on Windows 7 so I don't see any reason it wouldn't work fine with 8.

It should work for Win 8.1 64bit. Just make sure that you have the right device driver on your machine.

Hi Jessica, sorry for the late reply. It appears it does work with Win8. So you should definitely get one.

Absolutely yes. Using it with Windows 8 as I write this. Works just fine. No problems with Win 8 self installing it.

Yes it will work with windows 8.1 the drivers are included but you might just want to go to the asus website to make sure they are up to date.

Yes, it is compatible with Win 7. I'm running it against Win 7 (64 bit) on two machines with no problems.

Don't see why not but I have no idea if that application is compatible with Win8 or not so if this is a deal breaker I'd check with MS

I would assume so. Butbif your running on windows 8 your better off trying to download because the disk won't work on wind 8.1.

It is compatible with WinXP, Vista 32, Vista 64, Win7 32,and Win7 64. I'm not sure of Win8. I use it on Vista 64 didn't have any problems installing it.
