yes, it works with win8.

try running it as administrator?

[julienperformance]

What do you mean by administrator ?

[06MonteSS]

your Windows user account has to be an "Administrator" user account type...

also, if Win8 has that "User Access Control" crap like Win7 does, you'll want to disable that for your user account as well...

right click on the file and select run as administrator.

Hi, We have Windows XP on this machine. I tried to log on as an administrator but it says that I cannot open a session. Is there any other way that we can do that ?

Thanks !

did you try what I posted, right click the cmr icon and select run as admin?

[julienperformance]

Yes , it says user name unkown when I'm writing administrator

[mikel]

....who is the administrator???

this might be a pain in the butt.

try opening C:\ChipMaster Revolution\Settings and 2x click the file called cmr_reg_settings, then try opening cmr again.

good move, restoring to a previous date often resolves these issues.
