NX 8.0 on windows 8?

[yamaha26]

Hi

I install nx 8.0 (x64) on windows 8 pro (x64), but not working. The program write this: "Has stopped working". I think this is compability problem, therefore i set the compability with windows 7, but it did not work.
Any idea?

When does this happen?
Do you see the NX application popping up? Do you open a clean session with no part loaded?
Could be a license issue..I have seen the same error a lot when I had issues with the connection to the license server.

There's some information here:

Also attached is the latest matrix (Excel spreadsheet) of supported OS for NX, and you'll note that officially, NX 8.0 has NOT been certified on Windows 8, only NX 8.5 and NX 9.0 is being certified. Now I know some people have managed to get it to work, so you might get some help calling GTAC, but officially it's not a supported OS.

Thank you for your help.
