Hi,
I wonder if anyone of you IT Gurus out there can help me.
I have just bought a new Samsung laptop with Windows 7 64-Bit Home Premium installed.
I have a proper DVD disc of MB wiring drawings that I would like to install on it. When installed I click the short cut (Index) icon on my desktop, and it will open a internet explorer page and you access the drawings via. this page, each drawing, diagram etc. opens a new tab on explorer.
To install it requires you to download a small programme called "Whip4" (Icon on disc says Whip4.exe), the problem I have is that Windows 7 will not let me install it as soon as i click run a box comes up saying that it has compatibility issues.
I have tried right clicking on the icon, properties, compatibility, and running it on Windows XP, but the same prompt box comes up.
I had it on my previous PC and it was working after a fashion, with Windows XP.
Can any one help on this, just need to know whether it is possible, or otherwise I will buy a cheap second hand machine specifically to run this and EPC and WIS.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
