Is RadiMation on Microsoft Windows® Vista® supported?
Currently RadiMation is NOT yet officially supporting the Microsoft Windows Vista® operating system.
The reason that Microsoft Windows Vista® is not supported is that the Microsoft tools used to develop RadiMation are not supported by Microsoft Windows Vista®.
We will do our very best to get RadiMation working under Microsoft Windows Vista®. There are already some tests running at selected customers, to test if RadiMation is correctly working on Microsoft Windows Vista®. However it will take some time to get determine if no problems are occurring.
Getting RadiMation to work under Vista® means rewriting the code so that it runs with a different development environment; but also changing our testing procedures and test programs to ensure that we maintain the same level of quality that we have today.
Converting and ensuring quality will consume a lot of time, because RadiMation is too big and complex for an automated convert tool to understand. This requires that a lot of conversions have to be done manually, to ensure the quality of the source code, and this will take up our resources.
Will RadiMation run on Microsoft Windows Vista?
We have tested RadiMation with Microsoft Windows Vista with Service Pack 1. It is possible to run RadiMation on Microsoft Windows Vista Service Pack 1 under a normal user account, if after the installation some user-rights are adjusted. See the installation instructions in the user-manual and in the next section. Please notice that we still do not officially support Microsoft Windows Vista, but if you follow our installation instruction (see next section) you should be able to use RadiMation in combination with Microsoft Windows Vista SP1.
