I found doing it by cd is easier than the online way. :) I hope that this helps. If you have any other questions, just ask. I might can help. Carolyn

You can always upgrade to the next year's version if you have a valid license with time on it from the previous year. After installing the 2013, just download the new version and save it. Then uninstall the old version, making sure that the box about saving the activation code is checked. Finally, install the new version you've downloaded. It should find the activation code automatically. I've done it many times over the years. It's never failed. Be SURE that you match the type of new product with the old for it to work!! For example, if your old version is Anti-virus, be sure you don't replace it with Internet Security if you intend to use the same license. Also, if you have one year, 3 users, be sure to stick with that, too.

You know what I'm curious of. If you can upgrade it to Windows Vista. My brother keeps saying I'll have to do it eventually and I wonder about that if what he says is true. Though with the introduction of so many netbooks carrying XP to the market, I wonder what Microsoft is going to do about their plans to stop updating XP.

I don't know. I use it with Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit with SP1 installed. I think Project 2013 might be the preferred choice for Windows 8. Be careful about downloading Project. I always buy and pay extra for disc. Download with Project can be tricky.

The answer to both questions is yes. To install in win8 you must open the CD or download by right click and run as administrator or the install Will crash. I just logged my 40th dive with the xp 10 on a win8 machine. Happy bubbles, Daniel

HiReally depends on the age of your machine. This version is for system builders, meaning you'd have to wipe windows xp and install win7 fresh. This won't upgrade an existing windows installation.If your machine is older than 4 years, I'd suggest a new machine.The install took 15gb of my hard disk

Ours will come with SP3. You will receive a Windows XP SP3 reinstall CD as well.

I guess you could buy win 7 and install..but win 8 is really ok, just takes a bit of learning and you will find it really easy to work with. Its not much different than the old win xp , its just that you get to things a bit different , but when you get it down, you will like it..

Not quite sure what's preventing you from simply installing it as you did before. Unless you no longer have the requisite serial info or password to do so. I'm sorry I'm not very helpful. I can tell you that personally when I have had the need to install on a new computer and can't find either the disc or the info (which is almost always the case) I simply orflder a new one. The version I have isn't very costly and there are a number of places to find em. Good luck. Maybe you should ask a thirteen year old. I'm 50 and that's what I end up doing.

Hmm... I dug up my disk and was able to successfully install both II and III on a new computer with no problem. When you put the disk in and double click on setup.exe, there should be a splash screen that allows you to choose which game you want to install. I would suggest you contact the people that market the game, iWin.com, and maybe their customer support staff can help sort out your problem. Best of luck.

Where did you find the game? I don't want to play online...I want the software and am running Win 7 now as no other choice on a new computer..I would love it if someone would enlighten me to get a copy of some games. I had a bare bone computer from AMD and made it how I wanted it....so now running 64 bit instead of 32 bit and my old copy of scrabble I purchased and worked well with XP will not load...is there a way to load this with Win7 that I don't know about? I put the CD in and nothing...thank you for any help...

I think you will have to buy a copy and reimage it. I have been very happy with Windows 8. You might want to try it for a while before investing in 7. Good luck!

I'm using windows 8, it does come with an installation disc but the disc I received was a bad disc,but I found a free download on line but somehow I lost the link ,I'll keep looking and send it to you if I find it

I bought the disk (DVD -- note) and loaded the software to my PC... installed it to the hard disk; I prefer the disk as when I change or upgrade PCs I can reload the software -- after telling Microsoft what I am doing so they don't think I am installing a single-license version on 2 PCs. Please note that it is a DVD and does not load thru a CD-ROM. MS Word 2010 is also the last version of Word that runs on XP SP3.. Be sure of what you are buying -- disk or download; see seller's comments on whether the box/package was opened or not -- that means disk. the Word 2013 version needs Windows 7 or 8 .... Jay

It should. I don't remember how many times I've had to reinstall my XP because of one reason or another. To upgrade to SP3 you would still need to visit the microsoft website to up grade frist your explorer then the rest. Be carefull XP will not be supported much longer though.

i read in one of the revies that the guy hated W8 and went thru hoops to uninstall. think he formated drive and installed W7 but still had problems. I came from vista to W8 so little learning curve,....but lots of utube videos to ease the pain of learning curve. i was on 32 bit vista n this is 64 bit tech. i stored stuff in 32g thumb and moved to W8. some programs had to be updated for W8, or W7 cuz of the 64 bit thing but all works great. Updates for W7 seem to work fine on W8 platform, hope this helps u!

You will have to buy a different Operating System now. Windows won't give you the necessary updates for your computer and you won't be able to run any software. Support for XP ended in April 2014
