Works fine on Windows 7.
Kitch if you're replying to me I got bored of you and bunged you on my ignore list - You didn't seem to like any negative criticism or whining as you call it about a bit of software in a discussion thread about said bit of software - it was tiresome. Save yourself the effort.
have u tried compatibility mode?I can't install Sims 2 on Windows 8.
Unfortunately, you're continued line of comments do come across as 'whiney'.
For some reason, you seem to have more issues than the average person on here that's actually used Windows 8.
Is this not the place to discuss Windows 8?
Is it wrong that I can discuss it's pros and cons based on my usage? To discuss frustrating aspects of it?
If people want to get very defensive that I don't like a bit of software then I think the problem may not lie with me.
have u tried compatibility mode?
there's more than that. ssd optimize tool, better task manager, built in iso mount, built in VM (Hyper-V), Native USB 3.0 Support, ectI did, if you'd read my posts instead of just inanely posting:
It boots faster than windows 7.
That is all. The only thing that I have noticed over 7 that is positive in a week or so.
its a fresh install. So far its been Bioshock (booted up before but no sound now wont boot) and Saints Row the Third (lets me play for 2-10 minutes then quits to desktop). Ive read bioshock is a pain anyway so im not super bothered about that. Its more Saints Row thats annoying me.
Yep, I think that's right. Some people have installed the latest version of GFWL and had the games working but I have, so far, failed on this. Frankly I am not so much interested in what's wrong as I am in when it will be fixed. Certainly it appears to be GFWL as games not using it work fine.

Over at Steam forums they recommend uninstalling GFWL and getting latest version from Microsoft,thread here on the subject http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2985637
