Yes it works flawlesly if......

You do NOT install amd CCC (catalyst driver)
When windows 8 installs let it choose the video driver, it installs automatcly.
Run in administrator.

The game really works perfectly, no hangups and you can change the all the options menu to your harts content.

Drawbacks

I use 2 grafic cards so no crossfire. But since I use dual boot and all my games are installed on windows 7 it is ok for me.
All other offerings CCC gives is a no go, naturally it is not installed so how could it!!

What sacrifice one has to endure to get older games working!!!!
Mind you it only works with the gog game NOT the steam one, yes tried that one too since I own in on steam also.
