One of our computers at work died and I had to buy a new one. The new one came with Windows 7 while all of our other machines are running XP pro.

I had the hardest time configuring the new computer with all of our software since we do not upgrade the software every time a new version comes out (we do not see the need for that!).

Anyway, finally got Autocad to work by starting the program by using the compatability mode within 7. Then I could not find a driver for our HP plotter. Finally found a driver that a guy in Germany had that said he got to work.

Granted our plotter is 9 years old, but we just had it serviced a couple of years ago. There is NOTHING wrong with our plotter, but because it is old, HP does not support it anymore. Sad that we might have to buy another 10k plotter because of compatability issues.
