Title: Machinarium won't run on Win 8.1
Post by: OldGuy on December 21, 2014, 03:36:40 pm
All the talk I've read was it would run on Win 8.1  No, it won't.   Screen is WAY off center.  I unlock and open the book with the key but I cannot close the book.  Could be something is not appearing on the screen that will allow me to close, or get the book off the screen so I can, you know, actually play the game.  Oh well, not the first $10 I've wasted.

Quoting from here (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/get-apps-devices-working):

"If you're having trouble running an app that worked in a previous version of Windows, you might be able to run it in compatibility mode. For more info, go to Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/older-programs-compatible-version-windows)."  

Hope this helps.
