Is there a version of Quicken that will install on both Win2K and
Win7? I quit upgrading when Turbotax did their Activation Fiasco, but
my Quicken 2002 will not install in Vista 64 (soon to be Windows 7). I
have been told that the latest Quicken will not install on Win2K.

Also, is there a place to get older versions of Quicken?

Thanks for the info

Phil

Hi, Phil.

Are you SURE that Quicken 2002 will not install in Vista or Win7 x64?

When you try, what happens? If you get an error message, what EXACTLY does
it say?

The message I get now is "Autorun is unable to run
d:...disk1setup.exe" This is not what I recall as the original
message. The original message let me to believe that the installer
was not compatable with 64 bit Vista. (a 16bit installer ??)

I will try to get the original message again.

3rd time is a charm. Don't know what was different, but I now have
Q2002 installed and working.

Aren't computers great!

Hi, Phil.

Congratulations! And thanks for the report back.

Sometimes computers just don't make sense! But when they work, they work,,,
and we forgive 'em. ;<)

Enjoy!
