XP and 2000 worked fine together. I have much less experience with Vista and Win 7, but they seem okay. Now, XP and Vista, no way. So it might be more accurate to say a major version jump is the breaker, which at least makes sense. (2000=5.0, XP=5.1, Vista=6.0, 7=6.1, 8=7.0.) Of course, this was more obvious back when MSFT admitted admitted Windows has major and minor releases. :-p -- Ben
