I am not able to get NGS "CALIBRAT" to run on this 64 bit computer with Windows 7 Pro.

Does anyone have a windows or 64 bit version of the program they are willing to share?

Thanks in advance.

I think calibrat.exe will run in a Windows 7 Virtual PC window. I just tried a dry run -- I didn't have any actual data at hand -- and it seemed to work as expected.

Thanks Jim. Tried all I know and still get this error:

Unsupported 16-Bit Application
The program or feature cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows

Are you trying to run it in an XP virtual machine, or trying to run it in a Win7 command line window? The first works for me, the latter generates the error you note. (My OS is Win7 Pro 64bit.)

I run all my old dos programs thru this

Thanks. The "dosbox" works. It has been a long time since using dos prompts.
