Any tricks to getting ilnk3.4 m050 to run on win7 32bit? It shows the
splash screen, then screen flashes black for a quick second, then
nothing.

Go to the startup batch file (in <loadpoint>/bin directory), right-mouse-click on the bat file, select Properties, select Compatibility tab, and use the drop-down menu to select Vista SP 2.


Works for us.

Thanks everyone. Got it working. Once again the forum comes thru as a
terriffic resource.

Here's what I did to get it going. Very simple steps.

1) Navigate to c:\ptc\proiclient3_4\i486_nt\jre\bin folder

2) Right-click on javaw.exe and select Properties

3) Go to the Compatibility tab

4) Click the button for "Change settings for all users"

5) Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows Vista"


Also you will want to edit the proilink3.4 batch file located in
c:\ptc\proiclient3_4\bin folder. This will prevent Windows from
switching to the Aero mode. Add the statement in bold to the script
below.

start /B %prodir%\%mc%\jre\bin\javaw -Xmx256m -Xss8m
-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -jar %PRO_DIRECTORY%\java\lib\Intralink.jar -l
%luknfeel% %intralinkparams% >> "%logfile%"
