Hello Team,

I have searched many of the forums and cant seem to find an answer.

I am running Windows 7 Starter Edition, 32 bit and trying to run Professional radio R06.11.10 and it loads fine and cant open files and so forth, but cannot read or write a radio.

I understand and see out here about the Virtual XP however, per microsoft.com, I cannot download this due to be win 7 starter.

Is there ANY way to make moto cps cps work on my version of windows 7 and if so, how?

Thanks

i havn't used 7 myself but motorola programs don't even like to run on vista so you probablly want to find an xp machine to use

USB port only? No RS232 on the computer? Using a USB to serial adapter?

Yes USB port only...no serial ports. Using a serial to USB adapter

Problem may lie with your adapter and not your OS. Are the drivers updated?
