[?]: Windows 10/8/7 and step 7 incompatible ?

Post by Scarch »

I've trying to install step7 under windows seven, even changing the settings in the ini file for the installer but nothing to do. How to manage it?
Or we'll have to wait for the hotfix?

Hello,

Even the last SP5 of Step7 v5.4 doesn't supports Windows 7.
Supported operating systems:

* MS Windows XP Professional SP2 or SP3
* MS Windows Server 2003 SP2 standard edition, with or without R2 as workstation computer
* MS Windows Vista 32 Bit Ultimate and Business with or without SP1
Regards

download and install the msi tool orca https://mega.nz/#F!DsE1RDSB!Zk1D6fE-nuBGXJF74ZFGLA
edit setup.msi into hd image (no dvd) ...\CD_1\STEP7\Disk1
search ControlCondition DLG_InstallationRequirements and change Disable to Enable;
make the same in all setup.msi ; install and click in Ignore buttom now enabled.

this trick is mine and run it at your own risk
PD. IS BETTER USE:
>ENABLE BIOS VIRTUALIZATION >WINDOWS VIRTUAL PC
>WINDOWS XP MODE (NEW IN WINDOWS 7)

PD2. any know how siemens check VersionNT and LaunchCondition?

В принципе можно подружить Симатик и В7.
Сейчас на ооочччееенннньььь слабый комп с 512 мб и Вистой СП1 накатил W7.
Флекс и PLCSIM работают без проблем.
Надо где-то в реестре будет права для Степ7 поправить и можно работать.
Windows 7 Enterprise
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/enterp ... fault.aspx
Оговорка - то что Флекс на этой Висте пробовал помню,
а вот Степ7 на этой Висте не запускал - возможно права ещё на Висте были потеряны.
Надо начисто повторить эксперимент и устанавливать Премиум Студио целиком.
Ещё раз заострю внимание - комп слабый одноядерный 2,4 Гц и памяти всего 512 мб = устанавливал на Висту всё очень долго.
А на этом же компе с В7 Флекс работает на удивление быстро.
Впечатление от В7 после Висты, в смысле быстроты, положительные.
Особенно, когда ползунком понижаешь претензии надоедливой Самозащиты и СетевогоЭкрана.

I installed Step7 normally in Windows 8, but found a problem when I select "Insert New Object", the application crashes. It is the same with you?
