Phew! finally got here, what version will run on XP 32? I tied the latest download/version and it refused to install saying it was for 64bit.

I doubt there will any version currently available for a 20 year outdated operating system. Running a system that has not been updated in 20 years is not recommended and will cause you many headaches in todays world. If something is forcing you to use that system you are welcome to try any of the versions available here http://www.thedmxwiki.com/dmx_control_s ... _downloads
Please understand that the software has gone thru many transitions and the version you can get to function will most likely not be accurately represented by the current user manuals. You may also have great difficulty find compatible drivers.

Im fairly sure I used version 96j on XP, Party man is right in saying that there have been a lot of Bugfixes and new features since that version was released.

Yes I appreciate there will have been bugfixes with the various updates. I use old tech because that's my business. Should Freestyle appear to do what I need on tech I have freely available then I'll spec up a newer computer/OS/interfaces etc. - but I thought people were smart enough to know all that.

Matt - thanks for the info, I'll see if 96j works for me.

Partyman I'd be pleased if you didn't respond to any posts I make, I feel you have much to learn yet,
