What version of IS are you actually using? I have licence numbers for (v5, v6, v7, v8) but only use IS8 - which is still an excellent PIM.
Don’t you have/know your licence number?

I reinstalled and trialled ISv5 on Win7-64 a while back, to prove it (for another IS user on the Yahoo forum), and it ran OK. From memory, I had to take some care to install the correct versions of ukspell, and that was the only slight complication.

I don’t know about v3 though. It was before the time I started using IS. I don’t think I ever used/trialled that. My first IS was version 5, which was vintage 1998-2000
Do you know how to install v3 on Win7?
If you don’t, then you could copy the software on those diskettes, together with notes about the licence key - e.g., (say) to an online OneNote Notebook that I could set up for you, or elsewhere where I could download them. Then I could try installing it under Win8.1-64 as “compatible with Win7 or Visa” or something, for you. That would prove it one way or t’other. If it worked there, then it would probably be backwards-compatible on Win7, at least.
