For information on how to set up Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode, check out "Running Windows XP Mode with Windows Virtual PC" on the Support and Videos page. Once you have installed Windows XP Mode, click the Windows 7 Start button, then select All Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin setup. After opening the "XP Mode" window you can re-install your Carlson software from within the XP Mode window so that it will run the same way as if it were a 32 bit Windows XP computer and it should be able access Bluetooth and Serial Port connections. Not until I downloaded and installed Virtual PC and XP mode was this option available. However, I need to add that although I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, my machine did not come with Windows XP Mode built in. This will let user run "XP Mode" from the Start menu in Windows 7 to open a Window up that is a "Virtual Machine" that acts just like 32bit Windows XP. After posting and searching I landed on Microsofts Virtual PC page, which you mentioned. If you are currently running Windows 7 Home Premium you should be able to upgrade to the higher Windows Pro version for less than $100. Those with Home Premium or Starter are stuck Virtual PC not only doesn’t come.


Windows 7 Pro allows you to download and install a free software from the link below that would allow you to install and run Carlson Field 2010 as a 32bit Windows XP software in "Windows XP Mode": Users running Professional, Ultimate or Enterprise have to download both XP Mode and Virtual PC, on which it runs. Labs supporting Ukrainian Scientists is an expansive list of labs and PIs offering support at this time.At this time it seems Windows 7 has many security and firewall changes along with differences in the Device Drivers that may prevent a Bluetooth or 9pin connection from working properly in our Carlson 2010 software.įrom what our Development Team has found they feel it may be helpful to consider upgrading to Windows 7 Pro if you are not already running Windows 7 Pro or Windows 7 Ultimate.Science for Ukraine provides an overview of labs offering a place for researchers and students who are affected to work from, as well as offers of employment, funding, and accommodation: Start Virtual PC from Start > Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Virtual Machines then click Create virtual machine on the toolbar.Personally, I have found the messages of support from scientists everywhere to be truly heartfelt, and I would like to highlight some of the community initiatives I’ve seen here:

We also want to use our platform to highlight the response from the scientific community.
