If Millennia state on their website that legacy 6 will run on windows 95/98/ME/XP than it's fair to expect it runs on those OS, without much problems. Evert
-----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Glen Ballard Verzonden: maandag 12 september 2005 16:52 Aan: [email protected] Onderwerp: RE: [LegacyUG] V6 and Windows 98 Just a question: How fair is it to expect Legacy to support an OS that is 7 years old and there are 3 OS' since? I do understand there are a lot of users still on Windows 98, but realistically, how long can we expect them to support it? Just curious.

After some offline correspondence with Patricia, I tried some features of V6 with Firefox, Thunderbird, and MS Word also running (as well as all the other background stuff that that wants to run from startup and I haven't already disabled). Legacy froze while using the Research Guidance feature. I got no error messages, but the only way to free my system was Ctrl+Alt+Del and "End task" on the Legacy process. For me, this isn't necessarily a show stopper because of the way I typically use Legacy. However, I can definitely understand why some people might feel that it is. For over 30 years in the computer biz, my philosophy has always been "if it aint broke...". I've been putting off an upgrade to XP because nothing in my Win98 system was "broke", but this might provide a little more impetus. Legacy, itself, may not be "broke", but I saw no caveat about needing XP before I purchased V6 deluxe. I would certainly hope that the Legacy developers give this problem some serious consideration.
