    Newer BMW ETK & XP compatibility ques.

    Does anyone have one of the newest ETK and is it fully functional with XP? The reason I ask is my ETK is from 3/2001 and worked as it should on ME.When I got a new PC with XP a year ago the zoom/mag function stopped working.The scrolling bars dont appear.Making it hard to pinpoint the smallest parts.I called the dealer and they said they dont know and I cant return open software.
    So does anyone know what would work with XP home?

    People actually use XP Home?

    Woah.

    I have a 2002+ ETK, and it works just fine in XP Pro.

        Xp home came with the PC......Ok sounds like any ETK version from 2002 on will work with XP Pro.I'll go to the software store on campus and pick up XP Pro then.Its only $9.95.Gotta love educational discounts. :D Got the new office suite a month ago for $24.95! Too bad I lack comp skills because Visual Studio.Net Pro is only $48.95

          I have XP Pro and whatever ETK I have, I think 2001 or 2002- works great.

              My XP computer crashed when I tried to reload ETKA in to it. I had to wipe my hard drive completely. :evil: :evil:
