Dave, wsutliff and Helen,
I also have Vectorworks 12 and was worried about not getting it to work with my new PC running Windows 7 x64 Home Edition, with Intel i7-870 and 12 GB of RAM.
I was thinking I would have to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional and run VW under XP mode, but it would appear that that is NOT necessary and I am absolutely delighted!!!
Many thanks to wsutliff for providing this information.
I followed the directions given by wsutliff by installing VW12 on my system with my CDs and then downloading the 12.5.3 update. I located the correct HASP driver in the folder named "Support" in the "UpdateToVW1253" folder. I installed the HASP driver and so far VW is working like a dream and is running MUCH faster with my new system.
Cheers to wsutliff and good luck Helen and Dave. I hope that VW 12 works under Windows 7 for you as well as it has for me.
Robin
