Windows 8 Connectivity Issues

I've just finished setting up my first PirateBox using my Raspberry Pi which just came in today. It took me a bit to get it figured out because I had to switch drivers for my Wifi adapter I bought, but I got it working. My friends computers all connect fine, and so do our tablets, but for some reason my Windows 8 laptop will not connect to it. I've looked around online and haven't found any solution, does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Is there a known issue with Windows 8?

Thanks!
