Installing Lasercut 5.3 on a new laptop

[Neville Stewart]

Hello All, long time since Ive been on. I have searched without getting a definitive & successful answer but Ive installed Lasercut 5.3 that i got as a DL from Weike - Emily ( TY Emily ) Im getting a firmware error and the file will not download after I compute it. Everything runs fine on a very old xp laptop but I'd like to replace that with a newer Vista machine - Is there a simple way to achieve this? When I installed LC 5.3 it was a Chinese window UI so Id no idea what I was doing other than hitting what I thought was the Yes window - TIA Dubliner

Forgive this answer but I suggest you do what I did with my Vista laptop. Throw it in the trash!

Vista is no doubt the worse OS. Convert it over to Windows 7 for a smoother run. My Gateway laptop was Vista, the first to be exact...now with Windows 7 Ultimate, 4 gigs of RAM, and 500GB 7200rpm HDD, still kicking. Vista blocks a lot of programs from installing correctly.

That's hilarious and sadly true Mike and Tally, thanks for responding. N

With Vista I would go either back or forward XP or Windows 7 I tried windows 8 and didn't like it.
