Subject: Software Problems

Hello Everyone

Yesterday I migrated from XP to windows 7 64 bit. Sadly all my old brewing

software that ran quite happily on

XP 32 bit will no longer will run. I have tried running them in win 95

compatibility mode but that does not work.

I use the latest version of Beer Smith but would love to use all this old

software.

Anyone got any thoughts?

Thanks Ian

Hello Everyone

XP 32 bit will no longer will run. I have tried running them in

compatibility mode but that does not work.

I tried to send this yesterday, but forgot about sending in plain text so it

bounced.

The Digest has been so quiet, where is everyone. We have a wonderful

resource here can't believe there is not traffic.

Many years ago I downloaded Brewers Workshop and loved it from day one.

Tried to register the software but no response from emails. If you read this

Tom thanks for your software, wish I had the key to open the full version.
