Hi All,
Just to report that I've copied the entire folder from my old hard disk
and it works like a charm now showing all the missing maps I was looking
for...
Thanks for the help including those from private mail.

Thank you gentlemen. Thankfully,the hard drive of my dead Vista laptop
is still working so I might find the missing map files.
In the "demo" version, there are four maps apparently named MAPxx.EGA
so I have to verify on my older hard drive, how much more filename
with that extension there is (there should be 45 for my basic version).

Early on, all of the maps were in VGA format. Those were converted to
EGA format in conjunction with a
GeoClock version change at least 10 years ago. I haven't needed to
change anything since then and it
still runs as it should. That said, there are also the "space view"
maps which did present a problem, and I
did have to obtain replacements from him, but again that was close to
10 years ago.

I am still running XP in the PC World, but most operations are now on
Apples. I do recall having to change all the suffixes of the maps (I
think) sometime ago on one of the GeoClock updates. I bought the full
version and even my own Whitby-Centred VE3NO map, and my usage goes
back 25 years or so, through many updates. If (as Russ says) there
was a version update with Win7, I suggest you check the map-names,
particularly the suffixes Sylvain.

If you saved/backed up the map and data files somewhere you should be
able to re-load them. I've always kept backups
which I've used for that purpose when any became corrupted.

Hi All,
A couple of years ago, I purchased the basic version of GeoClock to get
more maps than the demo version. It worked well until recently, after
changing my Vista laptop with a Win 7 machine. I went trough the
registering processas it should and I entered my license key.
Now, the software seem having been registered but I only have the 4 demo
maps instead of the 45 maps I should normally have. I emailed the author
some days ago
asking for help but I'm still without any answer.
I'm now wondering if there's any kind of support nowadays for this
program? Is there something more "up to date" on the market that
doesthe same job, or even better?
Any hints would be welcome.
Thank you.
