I have BIAB in my old Windows 7, 32 bit Dell Latitude. It served me well but the whole exterior case is breaking so I tried to transfer BIAB to my Windows 7, 64 bit Dell Inspirion. I get a advisory box saying it is incapible. I got the program from Jim Baron many years ago. I tried to call him but the number I have doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Are you installing Band-in-a-Box from a Band-in-a-Box external hard drive, CD or floppies or are you attempting to copy from the hard drive of the 32 bit pc to the hard drive of the 64 bit pc?

What year Band-in-a-Box do you have? The program requires serial numbers after 2014.

The old version likely will work but it needs to be "installed", not just copied. You will need the installer disc for this.

Thank you so much guys. Jim B installed it for me many years ago. I don't recall the year but probably pre 2014. My recall is hazy but I don't think I received an installation disc.
I have a very good computer tech who inferred what you were telling me. I relocated recently to California so I tried to an old phone number for Jim B. I just found his area code may have changed. Hopefully he is still with us.
Your help & suggestions are appreciated.
