Yeh you could end up messing with it for ages, but if it won't work then it's likely to be a configuration problem, which could occur and be fixed in any version of windows. Give it a go - you may get lucky  If not post some error messages or screenshots or summink and myself of someone else here might be able to help.
So long as you can get Java and Quicktime installed OK you should be well on the way. Then its a question of seeing if it runs, and making the right tweaks to the system config if it doesn't. I know its a shitty piece of software, but I'm pretty sure you can get it running on most Windows systems - I'm happy to have people message me about dialogies problems, and I'll help you out as best as I can if you don't want to post a topic. Its nice to be able to give something back to the forum and I'm not usually any help on the actual mechanical car stuff
Cheers

no i think its 'cus xp has the faults fixed that caused the problems with previouse windows problems. but doesn't mean to say there won't be hidden problems in the future. I think it was written for apple. |

Hi all .........sorry havnt replied ....its been rather busy my way......Alec u say it could be a config problem......u could b right ...cause sometimes when the two disc's presumibly load with no errors showing on instalation ,and i open dialogys from desktop ...i get small control bar on top left of screen......i then enlarge........and look at an empty dialogy screen.......so is it acrobat or windows that needs config .....if so where or how?
