Re: NEED HELP TO INSTALL ON WINDOWS 8
What exactly is the error?
Re: NEED HELP TO INSTALL ON WINDOWS 8
Windows 8 is a tough OS, but it may run via Compatibility mode. May want to try turning off User Account Control as well.
IMHO I would go to Windows 7 on the machine so long as there is driver support. If you have Windows 8 Pro, it's free, if you have the basic one, its $100 for a "downgrade" license which is really an upgrade license.
If you right click the setup exe and go to the compatibility tab you can set it to Windows 7 and retry the installer. I would disable any AV/security software you have temporarily for the install as well if it is blocking any of the processes.
There is a pattern:
Windows 3.1 - great
Windows 95 - bad
Windows 98 - great
Windows Me - bad
Windows XP - great
Windows Vista - bad
Windows 7 - great
Windows 8..........take a wild guess lol
Post up how you make out.

Re: NEED HELP TO INSTALL ON WINDOWS 8
Did it launch once you closed out of the error message and tried to load it from the Start Menu/Desktop Icon?
Re: NEED HELP TO INSTALL ON WINDOWS 8
Remove any antivirus software as it is interfering with the executable. Then reinstall Smanager.
Re: NEED HELP TO INSTALL ON WINDOWS 8
i tried installing it on a windows 8 AMD processor laptop before and it failed. Apparently only Intel processors are supported. Make sure your laptop has an intel processor.
