Clif,

Sorry your Windows 2000 system is having trouble running tk8500.

As I have posted here before, other Windows 2000 users report
running tk8500 ok.

Jon Scott runs it on a Dell Cpi laptop and Windows 2000.

Sam Maynard runs tk8500 on Windows 2000
Pro "... by making a short-cut of the tk8500.bat file to my
Windows desktop, right-click the bat file, selected properties,
selected compatability tab, and made it to run in Windows 95
Compatability Layer..."

tk8500 works on Linux, BSD, MacOS X, Windows (95 and later), etc.


This appears a bit misleading. It is not written to support Windows 2000.

How does it work on a 'modern' operating system like XP?

I heard from at least one user, David Schofield,
who uses tk8500 successfully on his Windows XP system.

You can't get more "modern" than Red Hat Linux 9 and
tk8500 works well on it, too.
