Band in a box

Post by Jerry Meek »

I bought THE band in a box from Big Jim several years ago at the Dallas steel jamboree when XP was the so called great operating system but the BIB won't work on windows seven or 8 thru 10 windows. so I guess the BIB is totally worthless now. Am I wrong. Jerry

I am currently running BIAB 8.5 on an XP loaded older desktop computer and also on an XP loaded older lap top.

Also running the same version of BIAB on the current desk top computer I now use which has Windows 7 on it.

No problems on any of the three with running BIAB.

I ran BIAB 2011 on an XP, later on 8.1 and now on 10, all laptops. I haven't had any problems on any of the operating systems.
