I need to backup a WINXP pc and then move the files to a new WIN7 machine, so I emailed Seagate and asked about compatibility. I just got a response that I think will be helpful to many Amazon shoppers. Here it is:"The Go is compatible with both operating systems. You will need upgraded software that we can provide so that the drive can be used to back up your W7 PC. If you will provide the serial number of the drive you purchase we will be happy to send you the software."UPDATE 12/18/09: I also purchased this cool little hard drive, and it works seamlessly with Win7. Seagate sent me the updated software, but I didn't need to use it. I definitely recommend the FreeAgent Go!

I had no problem, mine was downloaded to windows seven and it works fine. Did you try downloading it manually, I am not that computer savvy, so I am afraid I am not much help, sorry

Dell told me they no longer supports Windows 7. But it installs OK. Dell supports Windows 8

I have Windows 7 and it works, if that answers your question. It's phrased a little funny so I'm not too sure what you mean.

On the disc that comes with it, it says it's supported. I am using windows 8 64-bit. If you still are not sure check out their website.

FWIW:Have mine running on Windows 7 64 bit without problems so I'm pretty sure it works under Win 8 as well, your mileage may vary though ;-)

It it's compatible with Windows 7 but there is no guarantee it will run well. The problem isn't your version of Windows but how poorly it was changed to work on any computer.

I apologize for the slow response; yes it claims to support Windows 8, though I have not personally tested it with that OS.

I am not 100% sure, however, Windows 8 should support anything that my Windows 7 Ultimate (which I use this with) supports. I am sure that Windows 8 accounts for backwards compatible drivers and software, otherwise they would be cutting their throats.. Bill is a smart man, it will work!

Yes, it is written on the box that Windows8 is supported. I am using it for Windows7.

Sorry, can't help you, I am using Windows 7 Pro. It works just fine with this OS.

while I am using it on Windows 7, going to the Hauppauge website, it looks like Windows XP is supported. I'm not surprised since there are so many XP systems still in use

I tried also with Windows 7 and it would not work. I went to Windows 8.1 and it is very fast!
