hello... wondering if anyone had any experiences good/bad at trying to install STEP7 on Windows 7 Professional (64-bit edition)? I tried to follow some instructions i found for doing it on 32-bit windows http://xuek.ru/eblog/2009/10/step7-at-win7/ but it did not work. i modified the .msi files to allow me to ignore the OS version, and copied the Common Files\Siemens folder to the appropriate location but the install process ditches with a pretty non-specific error (something along the lines of "not all programs were installed") not the end of the world if it's not possible as i have another machine i can get up and running for it, would just have been nice to get it working on my new laptop |

For the network issue; in your virtual machine management area open it's settings and under networking select your network card as a connection. You then must setup your network configuration under the XP machine as you normally would. To get around the remote desktop issue I installed the free version of Real VNC but VNC client/server combination should work. Tiny VNC and Tight VNC are other options. I installed the client and server on each but you need the server on the XP Mode machine and the Client on the Windows 7 machine. |
