Default playing sh4 on windows 8

Are there any mods out there that would make it possible to play SH4 on Windows 8? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

As I understand it, SH4 works perfectly well on windows 8, just ensure that you have the game in its own seperate folder rather than in C: Program files, eg save it to C:Silent Hunter 4 or whatever you wish to name it.

At least I certainly hope that it works well, I'm on the brink of investing in a new pc that has Windows 8 installed!

Just to confirm what has already been said, Sh4 works perfectly fine on Win 8.
