I am using it with Windows XP SP2 with no problems. The biggest problem
I have ever had was with getting the security installed, it insisted on
getting my key file from the A: or B: drive, nonexisitent on my laptop.
So I told it not to install security, put the key file in the directory
it would have copied it to, and it worked fine.

Cheerful regards,

Bob
