Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.

Well Dave, I for one don't know how you do it so could you supply more
details how it is done, please?
I have a lap top running Windows7 64 bit OS and it just won't run, even
after trying your way. Are you running Windows7 32 bit OS as I do
believe it will run as you say using that software.
Also, when installing Winpack on an earlier version of Windows, and
I've used all versions up to and including Vista, I do think there are
certain files put into Windows during installation, and as far as I
know they are needed by Winpack to be there to be able to run it. Any
ideas why it runs on your OS without a proper installation. I, as well
as others, sure would like to know.
I think Warren KB2VXA runs Winpack in Windows7 but using a virtual PC
program with earlier Windows software installed on the virtual PC. I
tried it that way and got into a horrible muddle so had to revert to a
restore to get back to normal.
Regards and....
