I can't install progeCAD smart 2009.
On July 4, 2008 I installed progeCAD 2008 with Windows Vista. Recently I changed my computer to Windows 7. Yesterday I uninstalled progeCAD 2008 in preparation for installing progeCAD 2009. When I attempted to install progeCAD 2009 I got this message: "Unsupported operating system. progeCAD 2009 SMART is compatible with Windows XP/Vista". How can I install progeCAD?

Hello BobnMonika,


progeCAD Smart 2009 will only run on XP or Vista. Some users have had success running progeCAD Smart installer under Windows 7 in "compatibility mode" for Windows XP, but this is not a supported method.

progeCAD Professional 2010 was the first version released which supported the new Windows 7 Operating System from Microsoft:

A new release of progeCAD Smart 2010 personal CAD for Windows 7 is planned for the end of the year.
