I know TSB software will run on Win XP, Vista and 7. But will our software run on earlier versions of Windows? If so, which ones?

I need to put it on my site and in the software documentation.

Thanks,
Debbie

Windows 2000 or higher. It shouldn't even install on anything earlier than 2000. Man, I couldn't believe people using a windows version that is 10 years old. lol

You'd be surprised, Thomas. I recently helped a guy clean up his hard drive from 2001 with only 256k of RAM. He didn't like that it was running slow. (It took almost an hour to boot up.)

I got it running faster. But I did try to explain it was time for a new PC.

In a way, I'm almost inclined to list my TSB software programs as compatible with WinXP and up. Anyone who's still using an earlier OS is probably so computer-illiterate that they're going to be a support problem. :D

I only claim XP and up for mine.

I used to do onsite/in home pc tune ups,
and came across quite a few older
pc's still out there, with less than XP...

What a nightmare! I frequenlty carried spare ram
to install while i cleaned up a pc, and removed it after
I was done... was still painfully slow lol

Im with Debbie, theres deifinite support issues brewing there :)
