I recently used the Tornado to transfer files from Win 7 to Win 8 and vice versa with excellent results. I had previous excellent results using the Tornado to transfer filess from Win XP to Win 7 land vice versa. I have NOT used the Tornado to transfer files from Win XP to Win 8 or vice versa though am of the opinion that the Tornado will do what you want to do. Naturally I'm only giving an opinion and would purchase the product anyway. I can't recall though I believe I may have used the Tornado long ago to transfer files from Win 95 to Win XP and worked fine. No guarantee... I would purchase the Tornado to do what you want to do and believe it will work. Good luck. Robert.

Tried win 7 to win 8, no go. That's when I found they no longer support the tornado.

It looks like this will work although it is slightly more manual. On each machine pull up my computer or windows explorer (windows key + E). You should see a separate drive listed for the The Tornado. Double click the drive and it should start the software. You must have the software running on both machine in order for the two computers to see each other.

I also have an older XP and newer Win7 that I needed to transfer to and from. I just used it last night. Some said it didn't work for them. I followed the instructions on the package and all went ok. I was concerned because part of the program it said Win7 and another part said Win8, but after plugging in the cable I went through some choices of which to transfer from and which files, etc. It also told me later which files/programs couldn't be transferred. I am happy with it so far.

No, that Easy transfer cable will only work for Vista. You need to have another cable that is designed for Windows 8.

I don't know - I used it with great success to transfer XP to W7. Try calling Belkin...

Not sure, package says the cable and software are good for transferring from Vista or XP with SP2 or higher to Windows 7, does not mention anything about Win 8. I agree with the other response about the devise that has USB connections on both sides.

There are many Cards that worked very well with WinXP, but first I would need to know if you are running 32 or 64bit and what open slots you have on your motherboard.

I'm using Win 7 64-bit with no issues. You do have to download the software from the site instead of using provided disk but was self explanatory. I don't believe there would be an issue on win 8 though.

I could never get the Prolific drivre to work under 64 bit WIN7. I don't know about WIN8. Try a converter that uses the FTDI Driver.

You require the Windows software to convert the files before you use them. https://bit.ly/supercardsdsuite/ has all the software plus addons like the hard to find movie player. As another person has said, in newer Windows (Vista/7/8/10) you will need to set the .exe file permissions to run as an old version of Windows (WinXP should be fine).

I had no problems loading it to a Win 8 computer. Did it a couple weeks ago.

You may try the Windows conpatabilty wizard. Just follow instructions. I`ve used it on another program that works fine on win 7, but would not work on win 8. Hope this helps.

I had no luck getting it to work in Windows 8.0 and most USB 3.0 devices will still work - in a technical sense - with Windows XP because they're backward-compatible. However, they will fall back to USB 2.0 compatibility and transfer data at about one-tenth of the potential speed of USB 3.0.

I don't know what the solution is. I transferred files from a Vista computer to a Windows 8 computer. I had to repeat the transfer several times, but it did transfer files.

well I guess use the migration software that comes with it or manually do it as per win 7, nothing special for 8 methinks...

You need to check with Sandisk. I do not have any computers with Windows 8. Sorry.

I have been using it with win7 Pro, haven't upgraded to Win8, but I have beta for Win10, I just might try it with win10, don't know why it wouldn't work.
