Music Creator 5 on Windows 8?

I just got a new windows 8 machine.
 
I have Cakewalk 5.  I'd like to install it on the windows 8 machine.  then maybe upgrade to the 5.05 version I see pinned here.
 
should that work?
 
thanks

I am using MC3 with a PreSonus Inspire external firewire audio interface. My computer is a Compaq AMD 64 Athlon 2.2 GHz w/ 448 MB of memory.

    you can try, but there's no guarantee.  MC5 was released long before Windows 8.

    I just picked up a copy of Music Creator 6 touch as an upgrade for $ 9.99 at the Cakewalk store 
    to put on my Win 8 computer ..

    I liked the MC 6 for XP so much I said why not ….
    right now with out an upgrade price it would still only cost $ 19.99….
     
    imho , new W 8 computer …why mess around.

    Wow..... with prices that low...it's a no-brainer.... 
     
    But when I see prices that low it makes me wonder if Cake isn't planning to end the MC line.

    +1 on the price and the no brainer strategy 
     
    I wound up getting MC6 first for XP , I liked it so much I got the Win 8 touch version for my non touch lap top
     
    I have no idea if Cake is planning on ending the MC line …..if so why come out w a touch version ?
