Navision Attain 3.10 and Windows 8.1

Hi

Don't know if this is the right place to post this but I'l give it a try.

We are currently in the phase where we are about to install Navision Server 2015 in a test environment and after that installation of Navision clients.

Since most of our "outdated hardware" - clients are already running Windows XP with Navision Attain, we are in the

progress of buying new hardware with which i think will run Windows 8.1 to support the new NAV client.

My problem is that it is decided that we are going to run the old navision attain clients and server alongside with the test-environment and maybe even further on after installation of NAV 2015.

Since we are about to install Windows 8.1 then my question is if Windows 8.1 does support the old Navision Attain 3.10? If not maybe it is possible to run a virtualized environment with Windows XP?

In that case, any other ideas or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

Hi dorianm,

Regarding to Navision Attain compatibility question, we suggest you contact with software manufacturer for more information because we have no rights to test them.

Windows 8.1 includes HyperV, the same machine virtualization technology that is part of Windows Server. HyperV lets you run more than one 32-bit or 64-bit x86 operating system at the same time on the same PC, by running them inside a virtual machine.

For more information about Hyper-V
