I put it onto a flash drive and just copied it over to the new Windows 8 machine. No registry changes were necessary, although I set it to run in XP service pack 3 compatability mode as administrator once it was on the new machine. I even have my old saved games transferred intact and working on Windows 8. Best of all, I have Captain Proton and Virtual Voyager as well as the main game.I found this solution on a Quake 3 forum which has more active discussions than Elite Force. Both run on the same Quake engine and have identical file systems. I had spent a long time searching for solutions to playing the game with expansion pack, so for anyone with access to a working installation on a 32 bit system, this is the simplest way to try.</blockquote>
