Additional Supported Applications
| Software Name |
Compatibility Status |
Description |
| AutoCad, Version 2006 |
Not Compatible |
According to vendor’s website there will be no support for this version under Windows Vista. Installs without errors, but will not run at all. |
| AutoCad, Version 2007 |
Compatible |
Requires Service Pack 2 to work with Vista. Service Pack 2 must be installed on a version that has not been upgraded to Service Pack 1. Software does run using a default install, however, Vista will complain that the software is not compatible on startup even with Service Pack 2 installed. As long as users select Run Anyway the software does work. |
| AutoCad, Version 2008 |
Compatible |
Vendor states that this version is fully compatible with Vista in both 32 and 64 bit versions. |
| Pine, Version 4.64 |
Compatible |
Runs under SSH on Unix hosts. PC-Pine 4.64 also works, but it must be installed in a non-standard directory for the configuration settings to be changed properly. |
| Eudora, Version 7.x |
Compatible |
Works with the default install and the Eudora instructions posted on CULink. |
| Firefox, Version 2.x |
Compatible |
Works using all default options during install. |
| Thunderbird, Version 2.x |
Compatible |
Worked with the default install options. There was some trouble saving sent messages to the CULink sever which is a default, but the mail was sent. The settings interface has changed since our instructions for CULink were written so a little more effort was required to configure – not Vista specific. |
| PrimoPDF, Version 3.1 |
Compatible |
Works with the default options for installing. |
| WinZip |
Compatible |
Works correctly using default settings. Usurps the built in unzip functionality from Vista – most likely does this in XP as well. |
| iClicker |
Compatible |
Informal testing by the vendor (iClicker) has shown no problems when using iClicker and iGrader software with Windows Vista, though the applications have not yet been officially tested with Vista. Official Windows Vista testing and support will likely be included with the new release of iClicker and iGrader, which is scheduled for this summer. |
