CoCo v3 in 2014

Post by TomT83 »

Hi all,
We are a school currently upgrading from XP to Win7 and we cannot get our version of CoCo v3 to work, so we are looking for a new version or any ideas on upgrades or even getting our version to work.
Thanks.

Hello Tom,

CoCo is now a legacy product which we no longer support, can you explain exactly what is going wrong when you try and install the product onto a Windows 7 PC, maybe we will be able to help. Note that you may have more luck with the software if you can install a 32-bit version of Windows or if you can run a virtualised copy of a 32-bit operating system.

There is a few FAQs on the CoCo product but not sure if any will help your current situation.

Hi there,
Thanks very much for the incredibly quick reply. What would you recommend as the replacement for CoCo - so we can suggest it to our Junior School teachers.
In answer to your question, we have found that installing it does work but on a reboot it kills the network driver via stopping the Diagnostic Policy Service.
Thanks once again.
