![]() The problem lies with the 16 bit DLL, BWCC.DLL. So I tried to run the Protel under Win7x32 and found the schematic program was fine but the pcb software would have its buttons corrupted if you opened it, closed it then opened it again. Virtual machines work very well, but they are a bit cumbersome to use: You have to boot them and then get your info in and out of them, they also have to be configured. It runs fine under WinXPx32, but my 2 computers run Win10圆4 and Win7x32. Not able to afford the $10k price tag of Altium Designer 15 I've been looking at reusing the old software for hobby purposes. I definitely preferred it to the Protel 98/99. ![]() I bought my copy of Protel Advanced PCB 2.8/Advanced Scematic 3 in the late 90's. A small Australian company that developed good schematic/pcb cad software at a great price. In the beginning there was Protel, before they became Altium. ![]()
