Dare I ask: Windows 7???

[CoolEdit 2000 on a Windows 7 Home Premium]

If anyone even reads this forum anymore...

Has anybody successfully installed CoolEdit 2000 on a Windows 7 Home Premium machine? Since Win7 HP (64-bit) doesn't have an XP Compatibility mode, I wonder if it will even work.

I just upgraded to a Win7 HP laptop from a WinXP Pro machine, and I'm finding that some older audio programs & VSTs don't work. I can't find my CE2k registration file, but when I do I guess I'll give it a try.

All new posts, regardless of the forum they are on are checked, pretty much every day, and that's why this site isn't full of spam - it gets deleted pretty much when it arrives.

I have no idea of whether CE2000 will work in W764HP, but it's not XP compatibility that's the issue here - it's from way earlier than that. Which may, somewhat perversely, give you more of a chance...

That's a bit cheeky, coming from someone who has a total of three posts in nearly four years.

I was actually giving him the benefit of the doubt here, and assuming that he meant that it might not be read because it refers to rather older versions of the software...

SteveG: Sorry for the confusion; thanks for the response and for the benefit of the doubt! That's exactly what I meant: whether anyone was still reading this specific forum about the obsolete versions of Cool Edit. I was just wondering whether anyone else had managed to make it work on a Win 7/64 platform.

Graeme: Thanks for so thoroughly investigating my posting history in an attempt, however unsuccessful, to determine my "cheekiness" with the utmost accuracy.

I have installed CE 2000 on Win7 x64, and done some simple manipulations without any problem.  But I didn't install any add-ons or run the registration program.  But well worth a try, I would think.
