WIN 7 Home Premium and Stedman's software - AZSCRIBE


Posted: May 17, 2010

Hi, I am getting a new computer tonight and need to know if any of you are using Win 7 Home Premium with your Stedman's software?  It says at Microsoft that to use older XP programs we need to have Win 7 Professional, but if I can use Win 7 Home Premium and save myself $100 I'd rather do that!  Also I wonder if my Instant Text Pro will work with Win 7 Home Premium too, anyone know?  Thanks! 

Check with your MTSO. It depends on your platform. - Many MTs cant use Win 7 yet. Careful!

Let us know, since there has not been a response. - NVMT

It would be good to know what the transition would be like! Since there was no response, then perhaps not many have made the move using IT and Stedmans.

WIN 7 Home Premium and Stedman's software - AZSCRIBE

[ In Reply To ..]
First off I was not asking about my work MTSO. I know it will work with that, already verified and besides I work in MS Word and a web based platform, everything has worked perfectly for 5 years. I was asking SPECIFICALLY about Stedman's software and Instant Text.

So here is what I did, I got the upgrade to Win 7 Pro, because you can supposedly run XP programs in XP with a free download from Microsoft. So you are basically running two OS one in Win 7 and then XP when you need it. That is pretty cool, I hope it really works because I figure I have at least $500 of Stedman's books on CD and another $200+ for Instant Text. All in all it was worth the deal Best Buy was offering for the $80 upgrade to Win 7 Pro. I will keep you posted, going to pick it up at the store now.

I am thinking of buying/downloading Stedman's Spellchecker but had a question and wondered if anyone here can help me out. They have Spellchecker Plus for $99.95 and also Spellchecker Plus for $39.95. It looks as though the latter might be an update, but the descriptions are basically the same. Does anyone know if you need the $99.95 one first or will the $39.95 one do the job? I appreciate any feedback! ...
