    New Workstation can't run Velocity 5

    I recently loaded Windows 7 64 bit OS on my Dual Core AMD 1.5 Gig RAM Laptop and have been running Velocity 5.1 just fine so when I decided to update my office workstation last week I bought what I thought was a pretty good system:
    ASUS M4A785-M Motherboard
    AMD PHencom II X4 920 2.80GHz CPU
    8 GB RAM
    1Tbyte SATA HD
    1 DVD/CD SATA reader/ burner
    ATI Radon HD 4200 on board Video
    Windows 7 Pro 64 bit OS
    450 Watt Powersupply
    multi card /chip reader
    I am running it under the XP Compatiblility protocols

    I can load and draw in Velocity 5.1 but cannot verify which limits my use. Any Ideas?


    Thanks

    My first guess is XP compatibility is not running correctly. Second guess - are the video drivers up to date? Lastly, and this may be more of a personal preference, have you tried to add a video card? I don't even buy laptops without vid cards because my apps are so graphics intensive.

    I think it should be ATI display driver problem ....
    Please uninstall the ATI dirver and ATI program. Re-install the ATI display driver only, and try again.

    I bought and installed a new Video card with 1 gig Vid Ram that seem to solve the problem. Of course that also installed new drivers, but I had messed with that before too.
    Thank you for the suggestions and help

    I had issues with verifying in Windows 7... found on the web that MwVerify.dll has issues
    in 5.x

    If you can get a replacement from and earlier version( I think I used V4 SP1's copy)

    They are working on it, so you should contact support
