Hello, First of all Step-7 Micro/Win is not compatible with Windows 7. Check here As I know no Siemens software is compatible with Windows 7. Normally when you upgrade Step-7 Micro/Win with an SP you need to run installation of SP and then follow instructions. If it asks to uninstall previous version then you just do so. But never first uninstall previous version before you run SP installation. First you should be asked to do so. Anyway you can do it only on supported operating systems. |
Best regards, |

hi there i had the same issue, how ever i got it working by using Windows XP Mode. my current PC did not support Virtual PC so i was unable to use XP Mode. However I read VMLite can also run the XP Mode image and is free. I have just tested the VMLite with my XP Mode image and it ran's fine, I have installed STEP7 MicroWin with no issues and uploaded/ downloaded projects to S7-200 PLCs no problems. You can get VMLite from:http://www.vmlite.comjust need to register and download its free. The XP Mode Image you can need to get that first and install from here:http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx hope that helps Abdul |
