GENERAL ISSUES
AND SOLUTIONS: |
||||
|
|
||||
|
Issue: Will this program run on Windows XP, 2000, NT 4.0,
ME, and Macintosh OS X? |
||||
|
|
||||
|
Solution: Cursory testing performed on Windows XP,
2000, NT 4.0, and ME machines have not revealed any issues. On Macintosh, the program runs fine in
Classic Mode. Our customers
use a wide variety of operating systems and applications, and our software
must be developed to be used on some lower end systems to meet customer
needs. Because of this, we cannot guarantee
our software will always work as expected as new operating systems and other
applications are developed. We
encourage you to give our products a 'test drive' on any new system you plan
to implement. If you are not satisfied
with the performance of our product, we will do our best to deliver a
compatible product to you in a timely manner or refund your money. |
