Hi all,

I’m having difficulty installing P3 to Windows 7 (64-bit). Is P3 compatible with this OS?

Hi Saiful Adli,

No it is not as P3 is a 16 bit application and will not run on a 64 bit OS.

Hi Phil,

Is there any way I can use P3 in Windows 7? I just bought my new laptop.. :-(

Saiful,
No, you will have to ’bite the bullet’ and upgrade to P6 I am afraid. You will find it challenging at first as I did (P3 to P3e) but you wont look back to P3 after you are familiar with it.

No doubt this will spark a whole new debate on the differences between P3 and P6 and the perceptions of each user but in my opinion (and I was a staunch P3 user that was dragged kicking and screaming away from P3) P6 is a really good planning tool and I could not go back to it.

Take the plunge my friend!

Thanks a lot Phil.

But now, I’m stuck in a fast track project. No rooms for learning/training.

I hope the bullets is gonna be tasty..

Thanks again for your advice Phil.

Saiful;

agreed with phil on this, you should move to P6, previously i’m also unhappy with P6 because it totally new platform compare to P3, after using it for a few months and now have using it for 3 years, i found that this P6 is very good software but of course something need to consider on new version of P6.

Thanks Irfan..

Currently playing around with P6. Hopefully I can master this software within this few days..(finger crossed)
