kbyrne Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 http://www.electronics-lab.com/downloads/schematic/001/index.htmlIt is the first software called Electronic Circuit Designer, file dowloads as Tex.zip. Download goes ok and unzipping it works but link error message between to parts of it produces a error message. Can anybody advise me in fileing in C drive so it opens up fully linked together as I view this as to why it does not fully work. My fault as I am barely proficcent in computers.

Hero999 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 It works for me under Windows XP 32-bit.Simply extract all the files to the same folder and run ECD.EXEThis is an old DOS program so won't work with the newer versions of Windows (Vista, Windows XP 64-bit or Windows 7) but it should work under an emulator such as DOSBox.

Hero999 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 What do you mean by link the program together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbyrne Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 If I have the origional folder called TEX on my desktop and open it and place DOSBox into it will that suffice or does the folder have to be installed in C:/ drive to work properly. That is my problem as someone inexperienced I don't have the knoledge therfore the confidence that I am doing it the right way from the beginning.
