CRAIG!!!!!!

In an earlier post I mentioned that I would try your software on Win XP

well I did today:

with the old software I see a bunch of different bytes but it wont link

with the new one the software starts right up saying it linked but then in the diagnostics window the check sums do not match at all so the data is garbage.

hope that answers any questions you have

if there is any thing else yo would like tested I am all ears or eyes

There goes any chance of me getting XP. I wouldn't touch XP with a 10 yard pole.

Why would you say that I really like this OS so far its the best windows I have used And I have used them all


I just use a win95 Boot disk and run the software from the prompt and it works fine

XP isn't bad, most people like. I work with it almost everyday(got to love end user phone support..), I for one am with okfoz on this one. You can have it.. I will stay with my Windows 2000.

How about a summary of what OS approaches work & don't work, for instance, it sounds like a Win95 boot disk works fine, and that would be the approach I myself have success with. Fabrication of a tabular rendition of program success experience with respect to OS would be helpful for others in future effort... I've only got an 8mb 486 laptop to toy with, so my OS choices for testing are somewhat limited...

oh ****, the software doesn't work in XP ?? I tried it last week and got nothing, I couldn't figure out what the problem was. I guess I need to get a 98 boot disk.
