Windows 7 Installation Tips

Restaurant Manager Versions 17 and 18

Last Revision 5/15/2012 JR

Introduction

This document is an informational guide for setting up Restaurant Manager Versions 17 & 18 on the Windows 7 software platform. Instructions are given for enhanced performance when running Restaurant Manager on a Windows 7 computer along with network performance issues.

ASI has been able to run on the three versions of Windows 7:

Windows 7 Pro 32 bit
Windows 7 Enterprise32 bit
Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit

Note ASI tested Windows Enterprise edition. However, Windows is no longer offering the Enterprise Edition to the public. A similar software Microsoft now offers is the Ultimate Edition. Because of the similarity between Enterprise and Ultimate, there is no reason to suggest that Restaurant Manager would not be able to be installed and run on the Ultimate Editions.

Please take into consideration that our tests are conducted in a limited environment. It is difficult for ASI to replicate all the hardware and software permutations for an over testing process. ASI strongly suggests you contact your third party hardware and software vendors to insure they are compatible Windows 7.
