FM 6 and FM 8 in the same computer

[Mike Wickham]

Define "stopped working." Does FrameMaker partially load. Does it not load 
at all. Does it work a while then quit? When clicking on a .FM file, does 
FM9 open instead? The latter behavior would be normal. You can have as many 
versions of FrameMaker installed on a single machine as you want. The last 
one installed will be the one that Windows uses as default and opens when 
you click on a .FM file. If you want to open the file with FM6, you need to 
right-click on it and choose "Open With," then choose FM6.
