Re: Installing CA on W7 64bit -- PCTECH

Part of this being a virtual machine means it has it's own drive space. It's a little tricky
to find it. You need to copy your macros to the virtual drive space. When you look at
your hard drive you will see a new folder. I don't remember what it's called. If you
can't find it email me back and I'll sign on to that PC.

I downloaded and installed the WXP virtual pc, ran the updates, got halfway
through and it bombed, uninstalled, reinstalled, ran updates, got a 5250
session to run. Only funny thing is the macros that used to run on this
machine and that run on my other machine won't run here.

Gary, thanks for the info on this!!!

Will take you to a page for you to download virtual-pc for free.

Install it on your Win7. It might require a re-boot. Start it. A window
will come up
that looks just like XP. Install CA into it.

Enjoy,

Gary,

I'm not familiar with Virtual XP...details?

Jim, instead of connecting my machine to a V7 machine ("Mohammed to the
mountain") wouldn't it be possible to burn a DVD with a newer version of

CA

on it ("mountain to Mohammed")? Or is the only way to get it onto a
machine via IFS?

Hi Jim,

I have V5R1 running in Win7 Pro 64bit inside of a Virtual XP. Install

the

free Virtual XP
then Install V5R2 inside of that. V6R1 is the first CA designed to

run in

Win7.

I've been running CA 5.2 on 32 bit W7 pro without problem. I think

what's

caused the problem is 64 bit W7.

Will a newer version of CA work with OS400 V5R2? Or if I have a

newer

version of CA will it work with V5R2?

Al would be laughing at me right now for running V5R2.

I suggest you upgrade CA to the V7 version. There is a 64bit

version

and

it runs very well, as long as you load the service pack.

I also run Win7 Pro on my desktop in the office and Win7 Ultimate

on my

laptop. Both run V7 CA without too much trouble. The only issue

I run

into is I can't get at the WAS console application from the servers
dialogs. IBM Support confirmed this was a problem that had not

been

resolved yet.

While trying to run the setup program I get the following message

Thoughts? TIA.
