Does anyone have a working version of INPA/Edibas that works on either vista 32bit or windows 7 64bit?
Version I have will only work on NT or XP.

Do you have a pretty recent laptop with Intel's Virtualisation Technology in the BIOS options?  Needs to be a quad-core CPU ideally and 6GB RAM.  If you have (and you have a copy of XP too) then you could run both XP and INPA etc 'inside' a virtual machine running on the laptop.  It isn't as difficult or complicated as it sounds - honest - and there are a few freebie downloadables that will enable you to do it.

I have an Oracle release called Virtual Box that the techies at work use, and is designed for all levels of computer user (honestly).  I have been using it to run Microsoft's latest disaster (Windoze 8 ) just to see how bad it really is (awful, awful, awful)).  Took about 15 mins to set up the VM following the tutorials and then install XP and off you go.

Got a few, Lenovo T410 for work, a Lenovo R400 (win 7 ultimate) is my personal laptop, a dell d430 for car stuff (vista), just repaired my dell d630 and stuck windows 7 ultimate on that too.
Got a d820 or 830 somewhere that may have xp on it
