Windows 7 Computer
Anyone have a working Win-7 PC for sale?

Have you tried the compatibility mode in the Windows later versions?

My Visual Basic (VB) 6 only installs on Win-7.

Tip: graduate yourself to Visual Basic .NET. You're basically asking "I need a washboard and bucket because my laundry shed doesn't have room in it for a washing machine." The solution to that would be either - get a stackable washer/dryer, take your clothes to a laundromat instead, get a smaller washing machine, or renovate the shed so you can wash your clothes like normal people. |
VB6 won't install on my Win-11.

I bought them for my office, years ago when I was updating all of my work stations. I decided to use my iMac for my personal computer so we never needed it. I kept it just in case I had to expand my system or replace one of the other units but never used it. LMK if that would help you and I'll bring them down when I'm back next month. |

I'm retired and don't have the time to convert 125,000 lines of source code into Net. I have a working backup Win7 and just looking for another. Once compiled my program runs fine and the customers love it and could care less of the coding used. The problem is Microsoft -- stopping support for something they previously fully supported. Shame on them.

You could try virtualizing windows 7 on an existing computer with oracle virtualbox.

My customers run my program on everything from XP to Win-11 (including 3rd party virtual windowing on Apple, etc). I'll eventually locate a good, used Win-7 system for backup purposes.

For those nay-sayers, I have to keep a Win-7 laptop around because I have an old Radio Shack police scanner and the interface cable drivers to program the frequencies stopped working with one of the later updates to Win-10. It's old, no updates coming so I'm glad I didn't throw that old laptop away. And before anybody says that the old scanner won't pick up police, there are plenty of other things to listen to such as aircraft, Ham, and even our HOA ground crews.

I have an old laptop running Windows 7. Would that work for your needs?
