For a lot of my satellite time I have used NOVA for predicting sat passes on a WinXP laptop in my vehicle. I have been required by work to go to a Windows Vista computer and have been unable to get Vista and Nova to work together.
What are people running on Windows Vista for prediction without an internet connection (so I can not use AMSAT's predict website).

Don't know for sure but NOVA may have been written in "Visual BASIC". In which case it will not run in VISTA. I have gone back to XP for that reason, and because XP is faster and requires less memory.
