I am going to begin some development work soon for a company that has an old version of the 8051 C compiler. The CD has “Release 1.2007” and “uVision 3” written on it.
Will this work on the PCs they have now if they are all Win 7 64 bit systems ?
If not, It’s possible they have another copy someplace in their closets ... what was the earliest version that supported Win 7 64 bit machines ?
If I can use this version, how do I go about getting around the Win 7 warning that "this version is not compatible ...." if that comes up. I'm new to Win 7, but have heard of people getting that, but going ahead with the install somehow.
Not sure - maybe they used Virtual PC XP Mode ???
