Status: offline 		I've just installed TOAW on a new Windows 7 PC (see related post on Scenarios...) and can't get it to run. I've tried running in compatibility mode but get the same result - the TOAW screen (with the usual drop down menus etc.) very briefly pops up and then disappears with the programme not running.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!

Status: offline 		Which version of TOAW were you trying to install?

I have a laptop that runs on Win7. It more than meets the system requirement. I bought TOAW III (v.3.0.0.17) downloadable version almost half a year ago and installed it without a glitch. I recently upgraded it to v.3.4.0.202. So far, so good.

I believe when we've seen this before it is because the user has installed the update without installing TOAW itself. Let's be clear: The update is not a stand-alone installation. Rather, it modifies an already existing TOAW installation.

Status: offline 		I have just upgraded to a laptop with windows 7. I loaded my original disk then all the updates. No problems with TOAW. Got problems with windows 7 but not with TOAW.
