I believe if you visit the Frame Download page, there's a patched install for 8 available that's likely to be lots fresher than the disks you have...<div><br><div>Also, the first couple of things that occurred to me about working with the disks you have: are that the person who ran the installation a.) didn't have local admin rights on the PC, b.) Didn't run the installation routine as Administrator, and/or c.) didn't set the W7 compatibility mode to XP when they ran the installation.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Three people on my team are currently using FM8. When IT upgraded our
computers to Windows 7 (from XP), they were able to re-install Frame 8 and TC 1
without a problem. Now I have a new writer who has been unsuccessful at
installing Frame 8 (on a new 32-bit Win 7 PC) using the installation disks we
have. (The intention was to set him up with a 30-day trial while we order a
license.) Each time, the installation proceeds...until it "rolls back"
and uninstalls. You don't even get a chance to enter a serial number or install
it as a trial. <u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The IT people simply reply that FM8 is not compatible with Win7. Can
anyone explain why it installed and works on three computers and not on others?<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">My plan was to purchase a new license (Frame 10, of course) and then
downgrade it to Frame 8, rather than spend thousands to upgrade everyone to 10,
with limited added value for us. I wanted to do the same (downgrade FM) with
TCS. Now, I don't know what to do.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">There are several posts on this list that verify that FM8 works on Win7
platforms. Advice, anyone?<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>
