Is the software included compatible with Windows 8?

Not sure about W8 (still using 7 here), but you can go to the "contact us" section of their website (smead.com) and chat with a rep that can help, and send you an upgrade link if available. Since they can send you a link to upgrade I can't understand why they don't just release the product 'ready to go' on the shelf! Hope that helps a little.

I have only used it with Windows 7. Perhaps you could contact the company to find out if it is compatible with Windows 8.

Yes, it is. I use it with Windows 8 all the time. Pretty much almost everyday and it works well.

Yes it is. You will have to download the software from Microsoft's website.

I found that by downloading the latest Windows 8 updates, it was in fact compatible.Mort Sipress

No. It IS NOT compatible with windows 8. Apparently they make one that is. I think it works on windows 7 though

I have used it with Windows 7. I do not see why it should not be compatible with Windows 8.

No it is not compatible with windows 8. It is a 2001 product and not compatible

To the best of my knowledge, there should be no issues using this unit with Windows 8.

Yes it is compatible and has been for some time now, I forgot when it changed to the 64 bit version. But it was some time ago back in Windows 7. I have been using it in Windows 8 since the Windows 8 beta came out.

it should be. I run windows 7 and it had to search for a driver to get it to function. My mouse was DOA (dead on arrival), but I did get it to function a bit after windows 7 found a compatible driver, and windows 8 should be able to do the same thing.

according to the description NO it is not compatible with windows 8. My granddaughter uses it with a mac and that is all I can tell you.

I use Windows 7 so I can't really say from experience. I assume it would be compatible with Win 8 since it says so on the official page - just have to install the drivers that it comes with.

Your not the first person to ask that, I have tried everything and windows 8 just won't let you use the software. Looks like I will have to contact microsoft.
