Has anyone sucessfully ran windows 7 with Motionbuilder? Windows 7 is supposed to have "xp mode"... anyone utilize that?

Thanks for any help. I'd just hate to purchase XP this late in the game if I don't have too and I definatly don't want to get vista so...

I used motionbuilder 7.5/7.5 extention 2 in XP, Vista and Win 7 without any problems. Which version do you have?

Thanks!

I have no version yet. I want to get the newest version. Educational if I can...

Or I'd love to find Motionbuilder '08 or whatever the last mac version was and just purchase it as a news article (with an autodesk rep) last year said you could since they left the mac but I don't see one.

You can always contact autodesk and ask what support they have for mac or just try the trial on their site. I have no experience with mac unfortunately. :)

We've got two Mac Pros with Windows7 and Motionbuilder 2010 working over here. The autodesk sales people didn't look very confident initially but it works =)

We're running MB 2010 on Win7 here too, without any apparent issues. I haven't installed 7.5, but 2009 installed and seems okay as well.

Cheers,
Daniel
