Re: changing computers
It depends which versions of Hoster or other products you have at the moment as to whether they will run properly on Windows 7.
All the newest releases run on XP, Vista & Windows 7. Unless you state which releases you have we can't tell you if they are suitable. You will have to follow the recommended Windows 7 set up instructions. One other point if you are getting a laptop computer they no longer come with the svideo connection so you will either need a converter box or use the HDMI or VGA Connections depending how you wish to connect your extended display.

As Roy said. For Hoster and Microstudio you do need to make changes to Windows 7 before installing it. Here is a link to those changes: http://www.mtu.com/upgrades/hoster/windows7-changes.htm

Re: changing computers
Read our upgrade page for each product. Their links are all found in the http://www.mtu.com/support/customer-support.htm page (the bottom-most row of navigation buttons at the top of the page, with the title "Version Upgrades" at the far left).
These show a table with the supported version numbers, Download buttons for each, AND the Windows OS versions each supports. Run your MTU program, click the Help menu at the top, and the "About..." command. The version number you are running can be found there. Then, on the upgrade page for that product, you can scroll down the page and find your running version, and see what changes were added to the released versions ABOVE it (higher version numbers). If you log into your MTU Account, you will find "Add to Cart" buttons beside each Registratio code whose 12-month upgrad period has expired. If your RegCode you want to install with has not yet expired, if you download the LATEST version it will install. If your RegCode "upgrade expire date" is past, when you try to install the LATEST version, you will see a web page with that RegCode, the product name, the price and an Add to Cart button. That means the RegCode upgrade period has expired and you need to order the upgrade. In the table mentioned above for each product, you can also see the "Install Date" for each version (not the Released Date). If this date is BEFORE the "Upgrade Expire Date" for a version, you can install that version without upgrading. |

Your KHPro is the current version As far as the Vogone goes you can redownload the installation for it from the Support/Vogone on the main MTU web site to remove it from the old computer, then buy the upgrade to load the latest on the new computer. Upgrades do use the same registration code.
