Reinstalling on new computer

2012-09-03 06:55 pm

Hi. I have bought a new computer - Windows 7 - and am trying to move NWC to it. I originally bought NWC 1.75, and then the upgrade to NWC2. The instructions say install 1.75 first, and then upgrade on the new computer; but I can't install 1.75 on a Windows 7 system. If I try just running the upgrader it says I need 2.1 installed - I don't remember NWC 2.1. Is there any way round all this, or do I just bite the bullet and buy a new copy?

You might want to check out NWC's support page.

I can't install 1.75 on a Windows 7 system.

AFAIK, 1.75 should work with a Windows 7 system.
Perhaps a user with this configuration would be kind enough to confirm ...

I'm running both 1.75c and 2.5.5 on a 64 bit Windows 7 machine. Both run side by side without any problems and without needing any special tweaks to allow them to run. They just install and run.
