PET 7.2 on Windows XP
Tried running PET 7.2 after installing on Windows XP keep getting: "informations on the used hardlock version of DLL: 1.62." "While addressing the Hardlock, the error 7 occurred." "Ini Station=Lokal". What do I do to get it to run? Does anyone know? Thanks for any help.

Hi
As a guess you are running the 64 bit version of XP yes ???
I do not think there is a fix for it as yet, the only way it seems to work without the Hardlock error is in 32 bit Windows...
All the best Brett

Computer came with XP Professional Service Pack 2 installed---I guess it is 64 bit? Don't know much tech stuff about computers--know some tech stuff about my OB. Guess I'll just de-install PET 7.2 or maybe leave installed until and if a fix arises? Thanks again for the help. Best, Greg

Stan,
it will not run under win7 64 bit , you will need to download Windows Virtual PC and install that first. That gives you a complete XP 32 bit environment under win7 ( compatibility mode won't work, as there is no way to tell hardlock to run 'as c ompatible).
Once you have loaded virtual pc, start it up, then put in the pet 7.2 disc and let it install.
You can get it, free at

Good luck,

Here is a recent thread where this issue was discussed ... which might be helpful for anyone else looking at this thread, who's running another OS.

extract the files to a folder, double click on VW-AU.exe located in the emulator folder, click on install and start box, then start Pet 7.2. I do not have windows 7 to test it on but its worth a shot.
