Hi Radpl, The Studio XPS 1647 has not been tested by Dell with Windows 8. However if you are using Windows 7 on your system there should not be any compatibility issues. After the official launch of Windows 8 on 26th October 2012, the drivers may not be available on the Dell support site. However, you can always check the manufacturer's website for suitable drivers.You can also check the following link for any further information on Windows 8 upgrade.[URL] can also check article:575111 on www.support.dell.com for help with Windows 8 upgrade. Please reply for any further questions.  Thanks and regardsAbhishek B#iworkfordell
