I don't think any of Tascam's recorders will run Windows 8.   ;D  The Tascam HD-P2 was based on Windows CE though.

The serious answer to your question is that if you connect the DR-07 to a Windows 8 PC it will show up as any other USB storage device.  Hope that helps.

What are you trying to do?

I had no trouble with the DR-07 with Windows 7. Windows 8 is suppose to be backwards compatible with Windows 7.

Yes, all USB storage devices that work fine with W7, work with W8 as well.
