    Windows 7?

    Is anyone running V23 in Windows 7? If so what do you think?

    I am currently running it on a Vista 64 machine. It is fine, but I am thinking Windows 7 might be more stable.

    I also ran V23 on Vista 64 and I have upgraded to Win 7 64.....no difference as far as running BOBCAD (must be set it up like Vista 64) but I do like Win 7 Much BETTER!!!(faster,neater,cleaner and NEW).Bottom line I say DO IT.

    Hope this helps,

    Robert

    I initially had an issue. First, BobCAD needs .NET 1.0, which W7 flags as having instability issues. Then when I ran BC, it would put up two error messages (though it would run). There was no way to get rid of the errors. A couple days later the computer upgraded to .NET 1.1 (also flagged as having instability issues), and after the reboot, BC runs fine.

    So, I don't know of issues yet, but I hope v24 is not built on such an old revision of .NET!
