Chief 7.0 in Win7 Hasp4 drivers

[Paul G]

Don't know about old Chief versions but I had a similar experience with my old AutoCAD when I upgraded to Win 7 from XP. The program seemed to install fine but when I went to run it I got an error message of some sort and then the program would just close. Since I wanted to be able to run AutoCAD too I ended up going to a dual boot setup where I can choose to start the computer in Windows 7 or in an "Earlier Version of Windows" (Windows XP). Seems to work just fine but of course you have to reboot to go from one OS to the other.

Hi Rich. Yeah, I'm fighting that as well. There's a converter program called Longbow that has had success in making old ACAD run on Win7. After spending 1½ hours on the phone with their tech guy I'm still out in the cold. Looking more and more like I may have to do a dual boot with XP in order to run both Chief and ACAD.
