Threat Net & Vista?

[Jon Gacke]

Hope I'm not re-hashing an old topic.
I need to replace my old laptop (Win XP) that I've been running Threat-Net on for several years with reasonable success.
Most new laptops run Vista OS.
I don't see any references to Vista on the Baron site - perhaps I've overlooked it. I contacted them but still no reply.
Any comments about your experiences with this combo would be appreciated.

Thnx!
J

I was wondering about this too. I'm still on XP, but if my laptop ever fails I'd be in the same boat. So yes if anyone knows, I'd be interested to hear...

Threat net works great on vista and even Windows 7 64bit

I run the threatnet stuff with no problems on Vista in my mobile setup.

I have not ran into any problems running it on a 64bit Vista system, works great.

Jon, ironicallly I just fired up Threat Net on Vista for the first time a few days ago. So far most everything seems to be working okay, although there were a few issues:

1) I had to change the default power plan to "high performance." Otherwise when the computer was charging the graphics rendered painfully slow. Of course this probably has more to do with my hardware specs than anything.

2)When I went in to modify the the places and sensor databases under the "Settings" menu, it would not save to the file. I kept getting a "disk error" message (This would be, for example, if you wanted to make a certain airport observation display at a more distant range than it normally does, or show a city that you don't normally see when zoomed out.) After playing around for awhile, I actually had to go in and modify some user permissions and security settings before it finally allowed these changes to save. I recall that this wasn't necessary in XP.

Have any others out there noticed this?

Anyway, that's all I've encountered so far. But again, all of the "crucial" features seem to work just fine.
