Ran OK on Win 7 but wouldn't allow installation of SR2 because of a font issue. -- Jeff Gaines Wiltshire UK Though no-one can go back and make a new start, everyone can start from now and make a new ending. |

Ran OK on Win 7 but wouldn't allow installation of SR2 because of a font issue. Check out http://www.freeoffice.com/ which is an MS Office compatible replacement. The above link is a lite free version, but they also have a commercial version with more capability. I've started with the free version and moved up to the pay version ($99) several years ago. It's well worth the money IMO. |

Ran OK on Win 7 but wouldn't allow installation of SR2 because of a font issue. You can always use Virtualbox, VMWare Player or Hyper-V! For Hyper-V, you need hardware support (SLAT a.k.a EPT). I went to all the trouble of acquiring hardware with the appropriate tick boxes, only to learn more about Hyper-V and decide it just wasn't something a home user should be turning on. One of the other hosting softwares would be less intrusive and "more portable". With only one machine here having EPT (extended page tables), I can't even run a Hyper-V machine on one of the other computers in the house, if my Hyper-V capable machine breaks down on me. VirtualBox runs on just about any machine here with enough cores to do a good job of running virtual machines. I've even run VirtualBox on my single-core laptop, and while it works, it isn't a speed demon. The only negative comment I have about VirtualBox, is it seems to be tweaked on a per-OS-version basis - it doesn't run Win2K properly, for example. A Win2K VM sitting idle in its desktop, causes a single CPU core on the host to run at 100% CPU. Other hosts don't do that. Paul |
