I tend to agree with you. I'm going to try the virtual box route today and see if it works but don't plan to spend alot of time trying to get it to work. If all else fails, I'd thought about getting a decent used laptop that has a serial out port or perhaps even a parallel port out. I had...

Thanks, I definitely have a valid XP product. I had a multiple users version which I have installed on 3 computers. I think it was valid for 5 - maybe 10. One I upgraded to the WIN7. Actually I didn't upgrade it - I reformatted and installed WIN7 because I had been told WIN7 wouldn't...

I tried installing LXi on my WIN 7 system prior to attempting the XP virtual mode. It would not install. Literally it would do nothing. I downloaded and ran the XP mode, which allowed the program to install, but after the reboot - the virtual XP wouldn't start. It would get about 25% of the...

I was able to download and install the virtual PC as well as the Win XP, install the FIRST disk. Since I'm going by my notes from the last time I installed this on an XP system, my notes say - reboot. I did that but the XP shell won't start. Actually it begins to start, gets about 1/3 of the...

could you direct me to a site that explains how to do that? I thought I had found the info but ran some virtual ability test and it said that I don't have the equip. My SIL said that if I have WIN7 Pro I should be able to do it. I'm just not sure how but wiling to spend the time. The...

Someone thought you could covert a file for them FROM VE. I have old Flexi software so may not be able to read the newer stuff. Willing to try but haven't heard back.

thanks for the info. I may even have my old switch. It was only a 2-way. perhaps it's buried in stuff since our move to our newer/smaller location. I'll check out Altex. I also need to find an adapter for my serial port from 9pin to 25 pin. may as well look while I'm at the site. Thanks...

I must have forgotten to mention our main business was printing for manufacturing. We are at approx 10% of what we were 12 years ago. Yes, a grand is a HUGE amount. must be nice to not have to worry about every penney. Those were the good-ole-days which are LONG gone. We're just trying to...

I'll probably have to do something like install a 2nd hard drive and put XP on that. What I don't know is how to handle the 64bit processor. would you guess that might be a problem? I'd also thought about partition magic to make my system multi bootable. I haven't messed with that stuff for...

I have an OLD version of VE Lxi and would be happy to print to PDF for you. I don't have alot of time to do very many, but if you're in a bind - let me know. I don't profess to be an expert in VE, but I do know how to export or print to PDF. I could list the fonts if they don't show in an...

I perhaps MIS-understood. I thought he was hoping to not buy Vector software since his comment was that he didn't want to upgrade his software. I thought he still had his old software, just an old version. I have an old version (6.6), but still use it. I can't seem to get it installed on...

converting to AI I'm no expert, but can't you print those files to a PDF? Those will import into AI. you may need to tweak a little, but not much. I also thought you could save those as EPS? That also imports easily into many graphics programs. I used to do all of my layouts in Adobe, save...

lxI software? I just joined this forum/group because of issues I'm haing with VE LXi Master+ software. Old software. version 6 something. I also would like to run the software on a WIN7 system that is 64bit. I do have the WIN7 Pro, but it doesn't seem to want to load at all. As for the...
