I have a client who is curious about this.
I'm not sure if win 7 32 or 64 bit makes any difference.I have a client with Draw 12 wondering what will happen if they buy new laptop. Draw 12 works for their needs.Like many, they're concerned that they'll have to upgrade lots of other software also, potentially exceeding the 800.00 cost of the laptop/win 7 itself.
I just got a new tower built for home and my wife poo-poo'd me for having Windows XP installed instead of going with 7. I am an avid gamer and did not want issues with 7 ruining what I already had worked on in the way of mod design and such.
Here at work I went straight from CorelDraw 11 to X4 and am still running Windows XP.
As far as I know 7 shouldn't cause any problems, but then I am not a tech by any means.

XP's cool, but I really like the search features in vista and all works fine with it. I'm definitely gonna hold off on the windows 7 for atleast another year.

Jeff, I haven't tried Version 12 on Windows 7 as yet. X3 seems to run fine but the majority of my time I use the newer versions. Runs perfect on Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit.
You should have a look at Windows XP Mode.

I successfully installed coreldraw 12 gs on windows 7, and using the compatibility options, got the apps to launch, bringing up the activation window. Unfortunately, a "continue" button to proceed without activation does not appear as the explanation in this window says, and when I press the activate now button, I get an error message saying that either the system date/time settings are wrong, the server is busy, or there is no internet connection.
I installed a downloaded upgrade version from several years ago that I have. Any suggestions.
Windows 7, and any other operating system they create is a huge slutty from major producers of software, it seems,
gather in some secret place to conspire against us, the users.
Of course the news are welcome, but we do not have to throw out what we bought.
THIS IS THE SAME AS YOU BUY A NEW STOVE AND NEED TO REPLACE YOUR PANS! MAKES NO SENSE.
