A warning about HICAPS terminals, practice management software and Windows 8.

Just found out the hard way that HICAPS terminals will only run on windows 8, or Windows 8.1 PRO.
I did my home work, but the vendors did not mentioned version numbers when I asked.
So I did an online upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 on our reception touch screen PC.....oops
Microsoft is withdrawing support for Windows XP in the new year. So if you are planning an upgrade of your system be very careful.
Also check that your printers will run with whatever computer/operating system you decide upon, the drivers for your printer may not be available
HICAPS still won't admit that their terminal does not work on the non PRO version of Windows 8.1
I understand that HICAPS have done no work upgrading their software, it only works with Windows 8.1 PRO just thru good luck.
