I have just bought a new computer which comes with Windows 7. When I tried to reload the files of Alan Munday’s Model Engineers Utilities it tells me the application is not compatible. Does anyone know if it has been updated to run on Windows 7??

I dont think there will be any more updates :-

From the web.

What version of win 7 do you have as some versions can run earlier versins of windows in emulate mode.

Hi Just searched the web and it may be that you are missing the VB runtime files

You could try to downlaod them. I think the latest are 6.0

Tony, I don’t which operating system the programme was witten to run with, but if it was XP, then you’ll need Windows Virtual PC, which is a freebie from Microsoft.

It’s a 500 meg file download though.

Best regards,

John

Thanks all. I installed the runtime and it is working. I have had all sorts of trouble with the new windows 7. The computer came with the home version which I needed to upgrade to professional to get my AutoCad 2006 program running. This will only run as an administrator though which is better than buying the latest AutoCad program. I had also needed to download the virtual pc as well. I may still convert back to XP.
