Gentleman,

I am building a new computer this week and need to select the OS - is anyone having trouble playing the games on Windows 8?

I've had no major trouble with the HPS/JTS games since I moved to Win 8 from Win 7. The only thing that I have noticed is that I can't see the last digit of the hex description in the bottom right corner and that may be a setting that has nothing to do with Win 8. But come to think of it, when I lose a game, I blame that on Win 8.

Just remember this, which applies to WIN 7 or 8:
