have a new pc now at work that has win 7 loaded on it.
I also have my old pc with win xp that it allowed me to keep to work on some of the older software projects.
I have loaded the allen bradley panelbuilder software on the pc with win 7 and IT loaded windows 7 virtual Pc and win xp mode software on my pc.
when i open the panelbuilder software on the pc that has the win 7 on it, the windows virtual pc software starts and i can actually open and modify and save a panelbuilder project.
Now here is where i am confused and can get no assistance from our IT department.
if i selected to download i can not see my usb to serial adapter that i use on the older serial stuff. when the xp mode is running and i go to control panel it does not reconize the usb to serial.
also, i can start up rslinx when using win 7, but if i start the virutal xp mode i do not see the software for allen bradley such as the programming software or rslinx all it will show under all programs is the allen bradley panelbuilder software.
anyone out there got any good advice? Our IT group told me that only the windows virtual and xp mode was allowed on the win 7 pc and if i am on the network to not run it.
completely confused.
thanks
