Orphalese under Windows Vista
Posted: Thu 16 Nov, 2006 8:43 pm
Hi Everybody:
If nobody else make the same claim, I'm persuaded I'm the first Orphalese user that installed the program on Windows Vista (RTM Version, Compilation 6.000, not RC1, RC2 nor Beta version, that's final!)... and got away with murder. Apart from a little not-repeated glitch (Richard has been informed), the program works just fine and installed correctly from the latest version. Net Framework is already installed on system (about box says version 2.0 instead of the 3.0 supposedly shipped with Vista), so the normal program installer is enough.
The Vista I got is an English one and will not be definitive on my machine, since it doesn't allow to update XP due to the different language version (XP is Spanish, Vista is English). Still I keep XP working on second hard disk, must wait to the end of January to get a proper license.
If your machine is a recent one, I recommend the Vista update, it's a pleasure to work with this OS, even reminds me too much Apple's Aqua (MacOS X) to be confortable. Bill says that Vista is smart enough to accomodate to your existing hardware, but I can't imagine how this monster will behave on an average WinBox.
