Any help would be greatly appreciated...
I had to get a new laptop this weekend and its a HP with windows 8.1
I had previously had been using Vista with Win500 and had no problems.
I have installed everything on the new laptop but cannot get Win500 to work correctly...here is a break down list of what's going on at this point:
- I can bring up Win500 no problems.
- I can connect my Pro106 and download all my info into Win500.
Once the popup box comes up and says its done...my pointer goes to hourglass mode and the popup box will just sit there for up to a minute before going away...after this all seems ok.
- When I click "save" or "save as"...the box will show up in about 30sec. Once it does I will give it a name and save it...at this point my pointer will go into hourglass mode again and stay there for 1-2min before it is free again. I can go to the save location and see my file but file size is zero. And if I try to open it with Win500, I get a popup box saying it is not a supported p500 file.
- Also to note...Win500 will lock up at times and I cannot do anything at this time but to shut it down with task manager.
Any ideas of where to go from here??...Ive about lost my mind trying various things but obviously with no luck.
Thanks! Keith
