quack74 Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 I know FE was made for XP, and there are issues using it with Vista(soon to be fixed I believe), but now new PC's use Windows7. Will it work with Windows7? Does anyone have and use FE with Windows7? I'm in the market for a new PC. Mine died again. This time it doesnt look good
MigBuster Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 You can put XP on your new PC if you like - however it will work on Vista and Win 7 because I use it on Win 7 64 Install it outside the program files/(x86) folders, and then patch it to the latest patch Nov 08 I think You can also right click the shortcut on the desktop to set the compatibility and also set it to run as admin.
FastCargo Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Works fine in Win 7 64-bit Home Premium...don't even have to run it in compatability mode. FC
quack74 Posted December 28, 2009 Author Posted December 28, 2009 Thanks a lot fellas. Thats good to know.
almccoyjr Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 You can let the install default to program files (x86): everything registers properly. FE even loads faster under W7. I'm running W7 Ult_64. plug_nickel (Al)
Leondus Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 I do not mean to necro this topic (last post on the topic 2010) but it worked like a charm with Win7.
