Gentlemen,
I am considering to purchase Windows 8. Do the HPS and JTS run in Windows 8?
Thank you

Hello Raymond,

all JT's games work properly (I have Win 8 too), I do not have HPS games but I think they will run as well.

I think you can download the JTS games to the default settings, but may need to alter the file path from the default for the HPS games.

I am sure that Andy will be along directly to assist. He knows everything. :wink: :o :mrgreen:

I have Windows 8 and all the HPS games installed... it works perfectly well.

However, you may face troubles due to some graphic cards (I experienced troubles with NVIDIA... but it was windows 7).

Go ahead ;)

I do not know how WIN8 treats folders, etc, but i would think WIN7 and 8 operate about the same way:

This might help in getting the games going.
