Migrating to a new windows 7 laptop - pic2exe on my old XP machine

Hi All

I have just bought a new windows 7 laptop.

My old machine was windows XP and was running pic2exe version 4.46

I have read the FAQ questions about migrating to a new machine and I have a copy of the pic2exe registration key (the one that updates rhe register)

Is the process for windows 7 the same as described in the FAQ?

I'm a little nervous about migrating to my new machine, but want I to continue using the brilliant product and my old lapptop is an old well worn machine that now runs rather slow (7 years old !!!)

Many thanks in anticipation of your help.

Regards

Phil

I was hoping one of our Windows 7 users would have picked this one up. I have no experience of Windows 7 at all but, so far as I know, the registration key installation process is the same on all releases of Windows. I've not seen any of the early Windows 7 users post any warnings that it isn't, so I am assuming that it is!

regards,

Peter

Thanks to both of you for replying to my posting.

I'll try the re-install and re-register ASAP (I'm still trying to get all my other software re-installed too - what a process 7 years worth of data and applications to sort out).

Thanks again for the reassurance.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Well six months after buying my new laptop I finally installed Pictures to Exe again.

I followed the instructions on these forums and it took me all of 2 minutes.

I've just done an AV of a recent family occassion and it worked well.

Thanks all for your help.

Glad to know that you've had a happy outcome!

Peter, yes a hppy ending.

Once I do an AV I am all enthusiastic to do another.

I find the resolution stuff all very complicated...you can set resolution for screen and images in the project options, but then you can resize your images to various pixel sizes outside of pic2exe.....how complicated is that to get your head around !!

Anyway thanks for all the assistance
