Status: offline 		Don't start me on Windows 8. I have Win 8 and Acrobat reader installed and it wont open pdf's at all for me. Every time I try and open a pdf it creates a new broken instance of Adobe reader. I may have to re-install the OS but its just too painful so tend to avoid pdf's on this machine... sigh.

Some PCs bringing Windows 8 pre-installed, will also bring Adobe Acrobat reader pre-installed in the Metro interface. Sometimes, when this happens, you need to reinstall it again through the normal desktop interface.

Status: offline 		Just for clarification, Is any PDF reader OK or does it have to be the Adobe reader? I hate that bloatware Adobe. Foxit opens every other PDF file so I assume it will open the manual for this game. Right?

Thanks. I think I'm going to buy this. I've usually had good luck with AGEOD.
