Hello,

for all this SW you can use Windows 7.

For some of the products you need Servicpacks to run/install this Software on Windows 7 64bit.

you can check this with the compatibility tool.

I have Simatic Manager v5.5 (dont know what SP) and trying to install on windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, but a error occurs which states " you can only install this software on windows XP, Windows server 2008, or windows 7 32 bits"

thank you

then you have only V5.5 without any SP.

order the trial cd's from siemens with the integrated SP's and the install will work
