Will Firecracker S/W run on WIN10 64bit?

(1/2) > >>

brobin:
I was digging through some boxes that have been sitting for several years and found my old Firecracker. I installed the Firecracker S/W from the X10 site just to see if it works.  The program opens and I can open the setup screen but then the program freezes and it takes a 3 finger salute to get out.  If I start the program and click a button same thing.  Not a big deal as I don't need to use the thing but just curious.

Tuicemen:
It has been a while since I played with old X10 software on Win 10.
If I remember right it has to be run in compatibility mode for XP.

brobin:
I suspected that might be the case. Thanks!

Knightrider:
Which firecracker are you using? There were two, you know.  Not the software, but the hardware. A 17 or a 19?

brobin:
This is the 17.  I have a 19 in my other place working with Alex10. My PC actually has a serial port so I just wanted to see if the 17 still worked.
