PM v26.0.0 on winXP-SP3 (as POSReady2009) - "Not supported OS"

Post by opera1217b1863 » 2016-02-01, 11:21

I'm trying to upgrade the "Intel Atom™ and Windows XP build" to the latest v26.0.0 on my winXP-SP3 (updated to the 2016-01-12 "second tuesday").
It installs OK but refuses to start with the "not supported OS" error message.

My OS was a regular winXP-SP3 Pro masqueraded as the POSReady2009 by a well-known registry tweak. All the previous PM versions were functioning normally here.

Thanks for pointing me there - I'm eagerly waiting for the v26.0.1 (and further) update.

I've actually moved it across here with a shadow topic there, just so it's clear in both places.

PM "Intel Atom™ and Windows XP build" v26.0.2 works here OK.

Thank you, MC, very much!
