Okay so, i'm trying to download Grand fantasia on my laptop and when I run the grandfantasia_us_downloader.exe it says connection problems - retrying in (number of seconds)
Can anyone help me with this?
(Note: my laptop is windows 8 and windows 8 is not on the system requirements. Could that be it? Does that mean I cant play?)

Is it telling you that you cant connect at the login screen or maybe the patcher?
