Alexander Severinsen posted that he could not get Stata 7 Intercooled to
start after installing it on a computer with the Windows XP operating
system. I had the same problem after upgrading from WIndows 98 to Windows
XP. I noted that I needed to bring up the "compatibility mode" screen in
Windows XP and mark Stata to run in "Windows 2000" compatibility mode to get
it to run.
Since Alexander has installed the updated Stata executable, he cannot get
even the Stata authorization process to run. I don't know what to recommend
on this other than trying to uninstall Stata from the Control Panel,
re-install it with the original executable, authorizing the serial number,
etc., then change the compatibility mode to Windows 2000, and then update
the executable.
