Windows 7--Switching to compatibility mode

Hi there. I have taken a job with a company who uses editscript which they tell me is only compatible with Windows XP. I am running Windows 7. On microsofts home page they have a download that will allow you to run 7 in XP mode for compatibility with older programs. I wondered if anyone has tried this or had any experience with this issue and editscript. I could just load a second OS on my computer but this download woud be much simpler and cheaper. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank ...

I've got Windows 7 Professional on my laptop, and have XP mode set up and running. I'm using WinScribe and my problem is that XP mode doesn't seem to recognize my foot pedal, but everything else in WinScribe is working great on 7. Does anyone have a driver that I can get a link to? Or, is there a new foot pedal I should look into for this purpose. I cannot for the life of me find a website with a legitimate driver download and with it bein ...

I searched archives, but could not find an answer to my compatibility question. Traveling at Christmas and want to use my laptop with Windows 7. Has anyone been able to use the system on 7? Getting an error message "cant't write params" or something like that. ...

Has anyone ever wanted to work for a company that only used Windows XP and you had Windows 7 but could virtually move to XP mode? Could you download their software on the XP mode side and get it to work? I had a job interview where their software only worked on XP. I thought I could do that, but I had to also have Word 2003. I only have 2010, but it has the compatability pack for 2003, BUT the client's software couldn't differentiate that. If I maybe bough ...

I do every time. I start thinking worse case scenario, and feel cut off. Think about losing the house, ending up on the streets, fighting for unemployment. Then another job pops up and i'm instantly comforted. But i'm left with a headache from jaw grinding, and the shakes. Why didn't I get that degree years ago??? Thanks for listening. :( Wish I had a good supply of muscle relaxers. ...

Can you ever get productive on MModal in the straight typing mode? Having to ctl+N and Ctl+shift+N for every header just doesn't seem productive. Can anyone make the same lph in MModal as they do in a decent platform? Thanks. I really don't understand the "brains" (or lack of them) behind these programmers than design these programs. ...

Just wondering how you go about checking compatibility of platforms with Windows 8. For example, ChartNet or CPSI. (Just two off the top of my head.) I've been using a laptop for almost 5 years now and I need an upgrade. My neck is begging for a desktop. Just checking out all options before I get one. ...

My work PC crashed last week. I am trying to find a PC to with Windows 7 since that is what I am currently using (well, was using) and I know it is compatible. All I am finding locally is Windows 8. They don't have anything running Windows 7 in stock. I don't have a lot of time to wait around to have one shipped to me. I have tried asking IT, but I still have not heard from them. Is Windows 8 compatible? ...

We recently started an account using Chartscript.net. A lot of our MTs use Shorthand for their word expander. Does anyone know how to make Shorthand work with Chartscript.net? Or...does anyone know how to load your Shorthand entries into the Chartscript.net expander? Thanks! ...

Has anyone had good luck with the Shorthand program in Editscript? If it does work, how do you tweak it to work? If not, what expander program does work, if any in Editscript? Does it matter what version Internet Explorer you use? It's a widely used platform out there but from past posts many have had difficulty with it and other expander programs as well. Any new info would be much appreciated. Thank you. ...

I was wondering if anyone who has Windows 7 and IE 9 has been successful using the MT Test site. I recently applied for a position and was directed to the MT Test site. When I signed on, I received an error message that the test site was not compatible with IE 9 and it is not possible to roll back to IE 8. I was directed to install Firefox of Google Chrome, neither of which I particularly want, and Apple Quick Time player, which I do not think will permit me to use a foot pedal ...

Does anyone here have a Perixx Periboard ergo keyboard? I'm thinking about ordering one but need to make sure it's compatible with Windows 7. I had an older Microsoft Natural ergo that, even with the USB adaptor, isn't compatible with Windows 7. I won't even start on my rant about how Windows could make their own system incompatible with one of their own keyboards. Yikes. Anyway, haven't had good look with the newer Microsoft Natural Ergos (sti ...

Does anyone work on the Dictaphone correction client speech recognition. I need to get a new foot pedal. Can I just purchase a Dictaphone foot pedal and it will work with it or is there a special Dictaphone foot pedal that I need. Tell me what kind you have model # etc if you work with this if you don't mind. Every other report that comes up errors out when I push the foot pedal. I get the message Specified handle is invalid. No speech will come up, it is just blank, then I have to go ...

I love Smartype, but a real fear is that at some point I will have to upgrade from XP--and Smartype is not compatible with the new versions of Windows. Does anyone know if there's any way to accommodate the Smartype shortcuts with a new platform/expander? ...

Can anyone tell me why my Infinity USB foot pedal would not work with a Dictaphone system? My foot pedal works (last time I used it) and I switched ports in case a port was bad. ...

Would some of you share your experience of going from Dictaphone ExText to VR. Anything positive at all? Our company will be going that route and we will be paid hourly so salary should not be a factor. The bottom line is, it is happening. I would appreciate hearing from MTs whose companies have switched over; the good, bad and ulgly. Thanks. ...
