Doing what exactly? AFAIK Chromecast connects directly to the Internet
for supported applications (e.g. Netflix), so the OS on your computer
shouldn't be an issue. If you mean sending web video from your desktop
then of course that's a different matter, but there are a lot of
variables (browser, codec support etc.) that aren't related to
Chromecast.
