dschwoegler Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I just recently found my older copy of A:M 10.5 and am trying to install it but have run into 2 problems. 1: it tells me I'm using an unsupported newer version of windows. 2: Once I got past that it is asking me for a serial number which I have no idea where that could be. Thanks for your help Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted April 12, 2012 Hash Fellow Share Posted April 12, 2012 Welcome to the forum! I just recently found my older copy of A:M 10.5 and am trying to install it but have run into 2 problems. 1: it tells me I'm using an unsupported newer version of windows. 2: Once I got past that it is asking me for a serial number which I have no idea where that could be. I am able to run v10.5 on my Windows 7 Home Premium. It's possible if you got the last v10.5 installer off the Hash ftp page that might work. It's also possible that running the installer in a Windows "Compatibility Mode" may be the answer. You will need a serial number however. Possibly it is stamped in your manual.

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted April 12, 2012 Hash Fellow Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'll note that for $79 you can get the one-year license to v16 and be far ahead on many bug fixes and new features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help I'll have to find my manual I know I have it. I bought the program so many years ago and messed around with it so after finding it I thought I'd just mess around again.

John Bigboote Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 It may be helpful too to print the serial number onto the actual CD... for those of us who lose things regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Definitely find and keep the serial number, but the best thing you can do is upgrade. Newer versions are more stable, have more features, and (the biggie!) when you have problems with v10 and come here for answers, you *know* what the refrain will be!
