We are having problems updating Weatherlink 5.8.1 to 5.9.0 on a pc running windows 2000. This is the serial port version of the data logger. The executable WeatherLink_Install_590.exe will uncompress then nothing. I tried the same file on my personal XP machine and it starts fine and goes to update the C++ compiler for windows. Has anyone else experienced an issue with WeatherLink 5.9.0 update and Win 2000?
Any ideas or thoughts welcome. TIA Can a Moderator move this to the proper forum? This post has been edited by KD8CPI: Nov 11 2009, 10:39 AM -------------------- Brian

5.9.0 does funy things upgrading over 5.8.1 / 5.8.2 and especially with Vista.
Uninstall 5.8.x and install a full verison of 5.7.1 then run 5.9.0 over that. |
