i've got running under windows 8.1 .

i had "troubleshoot compatibility" windows run "windows 8" compatible.  right-clicked on arduino program icon (which have on my  desktop) , selected "troubleshoot compatibility" context menu , let windows it's thing (very slow).  might save time going directly program "properties" , "compatibility" tab. 

i runs real slow, might old laptop.  don't know if it's faster on win xp, , had 8.1 when installed ide. 

hope helps.
