Is there a way to install FM7 on NT4

niallmac · June 15, 2004

I know it would be unsupported but does anybody know if there is a way to override the restriction on installing FM7 to an NT4 machine?

I have a client ready to upgrade to 7 but would not be able to upgrade their network. I'd just like to see what would happen with 7 running on NT4.

Any help appreciated

I haven't tried this myself, but it worked on earlier versions of FMP.

Install FMP on another, supported, computer on your network. Copy the FMP directory (from Program Files) from the original to the target computer.

If you don't have a site lisense, then you probably won't be able to run both copies of FMP on the same network concurrently.

Hi Jerry

Thanks but that won't work.

We're currently trying to "manually" install by registering dll's and amending system variables.

If anyone has a work around it would be appreciated.
