I bought Play 101 Games for an XP op sys. Does anyone know whether they will work on Windows 8? Box only says 7, XP &amp; Vista.

Yes, but for some games you have to use the compatibility feature. Super easy takes about 3 minutes or less.

I downloaded it on windows XP and Windows 7 was able to go 100%. It didnot show that it would work on windows 8.

It worked great for me on Vista and 8.1. I don't know why it would not work on XP

Yes. I purchased it and download it to my Win 8. My son plays with it every now and again. He has a wide choice og games to choose from.

When I first bought this disk I loaded it into my XP professional and I had problems with several games. It works fine on my windows 8.1.

I have windows 8.1 and the game dosent work for me. However, I dont know if this problem is specific to me or all 8.1 users have it. Hope this helps!

Yes! But not all of the new Win8 functions work. Not a problem though. The game plays better on Win8 than the older platforms.

Sorry to hear you're using Windows 8. Made the mistake of ordering a laptop with that OS and sent it back after a day of frustration with it. Can only suggest going to the website for the company that built this game to see if they can provide an answer. The age of the game would tend to be a detriment.

I've played it on xp to 8.1 it's worked just fine. I have also played for a few years and still finding new things. Have fun !

That would probably depend more on Windows 8 backward compatibility than this specific computer. I have one on the way and will see if I can play an older game on it and let you know. I know that my husband and I have enjoyed games from the pre-XP days on Windows 7 but 8 is such a departure that it is hard to say. Different games may also react differently. I'll probably be able to answer your question late next week if no one else does before then. :)

I only have XP but as I interpret their specs, XP is mentioned only as a minimum requirement and to assure people with old systems like mine that it will still work. Surely it will work with the newer ones.

Look for Youda games that make the game.I don't have windows 8.1 yet. It works great on our computers.Hope that helps!Mary

I've run it on Windows 7, and can only testify to that OS. So, I would be surprised if it weren't compatible with XP. I don't know (and have my doubts) as to whether it would work on Windows 8.

The system requirements states that it supports 64-Bit OS; Window Vista (SP2) X64. I use Windows 7 so I can only tell you what the game box says as I don't have 1st hand knowledge.

I ran the game on Windows 7, so I would imagine it would run on Vista as well. I know it runs on Windows 8, too. I don't know about Windows XP, but my guess would be that it would. Most games that run on Windows 7 can also run on Windows XP.

Yes it works great with windows 8. My wife and I both play. She is on windows 8 and I on windows 7. No problem with either setup. Both are optimized for direct x 11.
