I'm in the process of moving software over to a new Windows 8 64-bit machine; I ran into a few problems with Analog Laboratory at first, but my copy is now working. I don't howeverhave the hardware.
When I first tried to launch Analog Laboratory nothing would happen. I then went into the program folder, right clicked on Analog Laboratory, and set the program compatibility to Windows 7. I then received a strange e-licenser error that told me to restart the computer. After that however the program has been opening fine. I even went back and turned off the Windows 7 compatibility mode and it still seems to work, go figure. So perhaps try the compatibility setting?...
