I didn't remember every single issue then, and don't now either. One that I didn't list is the electronic service manual for my 1994 Audi won't run on Win 7. I made the painful conversion to the Windows Live email client which is worse than Outlook Express but nevertheless worked. Then one day it quit working demanding a mandatory update. The update didn't work and I made another painful switch to the Thunderbird email client, which in the long run was a good move. I've switched to Open Office rather than pay for a new version of Word. The old one (Word 97) ran fine on XP, not at all on Win 7. Yes it's old but did everything I needed it for.
I would like to hear of any other programs that failed on W7. Most of what I have heard is that nearly all programs that run on XP will still run on W7. Thanks.
