It does not, as I have windows 8 and it does not seem to want to function. : / Not sure if it 's cause of my graphics card or something but it doesn't seem to recognize my drivers.

Compatibility settings? Disabling enhanced themes? I don't have Windows 8 but I'm guessing Microsoft would never remove those features since other older programs have issues when running on a newer OS.

It should work, the desktop interface is mostly the same and compatibility settings are available.  There's no major change in how things should work with Win8, assuming you installed it correctly and none of your hardware is terribly old that they don't have usable drivers. Most of the time Win7 drivers should get you by

The saying goes as Microsoft comes out with a crappy OS they make a good one after it or before it.

You should stick with windows 7 if you have it and don't get windows 8 or vista.
