For those running on Windows 8. How exactly? Can't get this thing to install. Works fine on my Win 7 machine, but I NEED it to work on Win 8.

The network that I administrate is running Windows 7 on almost all our client machines. No machines the network I run are running windows 8. What I would recommend is right clicking on the .exe and going to the "compatibility tab" Then selecting windows 7 as the mode for the application to run. This MIGHT work and I've had this work for certain things in the past when we migrated from windows xp pro to windows 7 pro. I'm assuming though that you want to use this to print UPS labels and if that is the case you can also attempt using their active x printing option which will work on any modern operating MAC or Windows OS.

I have never tried installing it on Windows 8 However I was not able to get it to install on windows Vista or 7, only worked on XP.

I'm running it on Windows 7. It was initially not supported on Windows 8, hence the reason for looking for an upgrade and discovering it was no longer supported by MS. It will definitely not work as a "Windows App".

Works perfectly with Win7. The change log for the drivers on the TrackIR site indicates they added Win8 support in October of 2012. I've never personally tried to run it on Win8, but it's a very simple USB device, so I can't imagine it wouldn't work.

The only thing complex about it is getting it to actually work. Works fine with Windows 7. I finally gave up with Windows 8. If time is money I've spent thousands of dollars trying to find a solution.

I don't have Win 8 on any of my machines. But I expect the software on the CD is compatible. Definitely works with Win 7.

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 ;-)

I have installed it on Windows 8 and it works perfectly and flawlessly. Personally, Windows 8 is pretty alright, but I really miss the start menu and there is one hell of a learning curve.

I personally run Windows 7 but another user on Amazon.com claims the product works on Windows 8. I apologize for not being more helpful.

I can tell you it doesn't work on a Windows 8 computer. Crashes halfway through every game. Good luck on Windows 7 though.

Yes, it works fine on Windows 8 (that's what I run). There's no difference in performance between using it on Windows 8 or 7.

Have not seen a Windows 8 Driver for this yet but it works "plug 'n play" for Windows 7 without using the driver disk. If you have already made your purchase & tried unsucessfully to install it, try this: Physically remove the device and then open up device manager & "uninstall" it. Reboot your computer and then plug the adapter back in. When the "hardware found" driver install dialogue pops up, be sure to allow it to "search online" To see if it will find a driver. I can't say if this will work with any certainty because I don't have Windows 8 and haven't tried it.

I have played in on Windows 8 no problem. I haven't had any games fail to run on Windows 8, for that matter; I think pretty much any game published after Vista came out runs fine on Windows 8.

I got it to work on Windows 7 with the drivers that come on the disk, so it should work with win 8. Drivers are a problem with this product, as the latest ones coming from the chip manufacturer don't work with it.

Abraham K. ... I have used it on Windows 7 and 8 with no issues regarding a driver needed. Windows 7 says it's installing the driver and it then worked fine. Windows 8 booted up without any installation of driver notice. Roger M.

Hi Armando, I used this on Windows 7. No reason why it should not work on Windows 8.
