Unable to reinstall v 3

Post by martynguy » 03 Jan 2010 20:58

I have a small problem!  Having just migrated my laptop from Windows XP to Windows 7, and having faithfully backed up my program files, including Family Historian (v3.1.2) I can no longer reinstall it.  Trouble is that I have upgrade CDs - 2.2.4, 3.0.0, 3.1.2 - but the original v 2 has long since disappeared!  I thought that by copying the backup files back across and clicking on the .exe file, I could be back up and running ... but no joy - probably due to registry entries when (properly) installed.

Anyone any ideas how to proceed?  Is there a free download of v 2 anywhere - so I can work my way back up the upgrades!!

Sorry, you will need your original V2 CD to install V3 if you have the upgrade version.
