    Does anyone know if you can run Football Manager 2007 on Windows 8. I'm looking to upgrade but want to still play FM?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8, FM 2012 still works fine. In fact, every single app I used had zero compatibility issues. So if it works on 7, should be fine on 8...

    Can't speak for earlier versions of windows though

    Never bothered upgrading before cause didn't really have the cash, windows 8 is €30.

    As far as I know, to install FM07 on Windows 7 you have to use compatibility mode and use Windows 2000.
