Ide with Windows 7 |

Has anyone gotten the CCS IDE to work on the Windows 7 RC? I love this new OS and booting into Windows XP just to run CCS software is a drag. I tried to set the compatibility mode to XP, but PCW.exe just crashes at statup.
I guess there is XP mode to consider, but I really don't have the space for 3 separate operating systems on this computer, and setting up XP mode will take another 15-20 gigs. |

I also had problems testing the CCS demo on Windows 7 in spanish. I asked for help from CCS support but they didn't find an answer, they said that the demo worked perfectly on Win7 in english. |

Here's wishing the first adopters of win7 well. Many will prefer to wait the five or more years it often takes for Microsoft (tm) to iron out their undocumented free features.
I'll be interested after they have released the first 4 service packs for win7 and removed all the free features that some of us might erroneously call bugs. |

I have tried all compatability modes, nothing is work for me.

At the moment, I have a win xp box, and I use RDC to connect to it, and I run the compiler on it. |

I run CCS 4.074 on Win 7, everything work fine.
Win7 32-bit English.
HP 6930p, Ram 4G, P8400 cpu.
You should try with 32bit version first. 64bit version may cause your problem |

Windows 7 64-bit |

I'm trying Windows 7 64-bit RC build 7100 on a Dell Lattitude D830
and PCW.exe crashes. I have tried Win. XP SP2 mode with
Disabling of Visual Themes, Desktop Composition and Display Scaling
with "Run as Admin"
When I select Run in Win98 / Me compatibility mode I get "System
Error. Code 87. The parameter is incorrect." twice and then
the IDE comes up. The IDE has some quirks
One other thing pcwwiz.exe didn't get installed in the PICC
directory. |

I doubt seriously that the IDE will work/be stable in 64 bit mode with any version OS. The compiler was built for a 32 bit system and there are some pretty serious differences. It would likely have to be recompiled under a 64 bit system to work. I work extensively with Delphi (the compiler CCS is coded in) and I have to recompile my code on the target 64 bit system before it is stable. We had the same issues going from 98 to NT/XP. _________________ Google and Forum Search are some of your best tools!!!!

I have been playing with Windows 7 64-bit RC for about a week and
half. Actually, CCS is the only "current" program/software that
plain crashes even with "Admin Rights". What I mean by "current",
it is the only program that was written/compiled for XP/Vista.
Heck, even StarCraft from Blizzard runs on 64-bit Win. 7.
Microchip MPLAB IDE v8.33 seems to run fine.
Back CCS IDE, if I try run the IDE in Vista mode or in
native Win. 7 mode I get: "Exception EOIeSysError in
module Pcw.exe at 000D24C1. Element not found."
However, once you select Win98 or win95 mode, and you get
past the "parameter is incorrect" CCS seems to run fine.

Just curious, I work in other languages, and I just choose x32 or x64 and hit compile (or make if I am on linux)...
..So, my question is, with Delphi, is this the case? if so, why have they not done it? |

Mikey,
So you installed MPLAB as 64 bit and it worked? |
