rave and epc into vista

[harry]

ok you lot, i am a 'puta illiterate.
before i stuff anything,
is it possible to use epc and rave on windows vista? and how does one do it?

[Narangga]

Are you wanting to run them off your hard drive or run them off the CD's?

Either way then I would think both would be OK with Vista.

[Slunnie]

RAVE is fine with Vista.

RAVE is fine with Vista.

Must be thr only thing that is!

I think you're right! :lol2:

if you have an issue just download the free version of virtual pc from the microsoft site, install it and then install windows 98 or xp into a virtual machine.. easy peasy and works a treat

Yes - Vista!

Yes - Vista!
by far the most stable version of windows i have used IF you use supported hardware.

most problems are caused by people having too little ram or using too many system utilities or anti virus / anti trojan type programs, most do more harm than good..

another prime de stabiliser is system info utils like belarc and the like...

i just love magazine discs, every month my shop gets an intake of work when they hit the shelves, god bless em....

Fair enough.

Having operated XP and server 2003, I just don't enjoy vista at all.

The response was also partly tongue-in-cheek - given the quote at the bottom of your signature!

thanks for that, will try it, don't want to fill my laptop with too much crap, would prefer to run epc and rave straight from the discs, and i have issues with them, had troubles with both on windows xp professional.

Vista and RAVE aren't an issue. Apart form the Vista issues it runs like any other application. I cannot get the EPC to run under Vista no matter what I do, but have no problems with running it on XP. Anyway now I've gone to an iMac I can't run either on it - not interested in dual boot or such, will leave RAVE on the laptop.

I had trouble with RAVE on vista,, well actually I had trouble with adobe 8.5,,,,,,

9 seems to be working fine though,,

go vista!:cool:

[harry]

well i got the rave to work ok off the disc but epc still beats me,
i need a good mood and early morning to try again, too many things at once with computers scrambles me quickly, it's hard enough working a laptop without a mouse to start with
tap, tap err where did that go?
what ?
i dunno, didn't see it, will it matter?
arr, turns laptop off and grumbles toward fridge.

Just put the Rave 1 CD into the wife's new laptop with Vista and not a problem.

I don't often concur with Dave (Inc) but I have got to say, after the initial hurdles - which I guess took a week to iron out, Vista is great, I now have all 5 computers running on it at home (with the exception of the old unit that runs Linux - I need that to run some academic progs)

It sings, it dances, and alows me to do everything I need
