0 Jorcer Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 While it may be partially caused by Windows 8, I know for a fact that many people have gotten it running on Windows 8 so there is definitely a solution. However, without a log, I can't really help you. Also, friendly tip, don't ask for ETAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
