I have upgraded my computer to Windows Vista Ultimate (64 bit). I have installed JAVA version 1.6.0_16 for Vista (64 bit). I have jspWin.dll in my path. I have also upgraded to Internet TRiLOGI Version 6.24 build 03. I am able to run Trilogi and create, save, and load programs as expected. My problem is in the simulator. It doesn't seem to be executing anything. For example I can create a single rung with one input and one coil. When I run the simulator and right click (control enabled) on the input it will highlight in the simulator but the coil does not highlight indicating that it is energized. Neither the input nor the coil change state in the program. When I exit the simulator the program will then update to show the input highlighted. HELP!

As of now the 64-bit Vista is not one of those supported O/S for i-TRiLOGI. We haven't tested it out and therefore would not know if it would work.
JRE 1.6 may have more bugs than we like even for the 32-bit version. See if you can download the older 64-bit version such as JRE 1.4.2 and test it out. If you do get it to work with JRE 1.4.2 please drop a line here so that we can share with other users.

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded JAVA version 1.6.0_16 for Vista (32 bit) and the simulator problem has gone away. I will use this for now and I'll post results after a few weeks.

Update: I have installed ExcelLink 1.02 and TLServer 3.15 on this machine without any problems. It appears that all of the TriLogi software that I have will run on 64 bit VISTA using the latest version of 32 bit JAVA.

Thank you very much for your post. I am surprised that 32-bit Java JRE would work so well on a 64-bit Windows Vista. Going to 64-bit is somewhat like entering uncharted territory and the brave one :) may benefit from the riches provided all the obstacles are concurred along the way. We will advise any users with 64-bit Windows to still use 32-bit JRE if they encounter problems with 64-bit JRE. (64-bit JRE may yet still work on other computer configuration, we won't know until a user has tried it).
