Question

Mathcad 11 or Mathcad 14 running under Windows 7?

I am working very well with Mathcad 11 under WINDOWS XP SP 3 in the field of psycho-mathematics. As XP is no longer supported by Microsoft,

I will be forced to change operation system to WINDOWS 7. As I believe to know, Mathcad 11 will not run under WINDOWS 7. Does somebody know, if Mathcad 14 will run under WINDOWS 7 in real practice? I have used MC 14 with XP, but performance was poor (time for saving was much too long, ca. 1 minute).

Or are there other options for using Mathcad 11 from now? Or would it be better to change to Prime 3.0?

I heard, that Prime 3.0 does not allow taking videos from a FRAME variable, but I need this function for presentation.

I use Mathcad 14/15 with Win 7 - no problem!

With Win 8 - problems with 3D-plots.

Hallo, Valery,

thank You for Your quick answer. I will try my MC 14 with a new Windows 7 OS.

Hi Wolfgang,

see http://communities.ptc.com/message/206558#206558 for possibly an alternative route.

Success!
