If you do not know whether your computer uses Windows 7 or not, remember that Windows 7 was first released to computer manufacturers in July 2009; so if you bought your computer before then, it is not likely to have Windows 7 on board unless Windows 7 has been subsequently installed.

And if you have a computer with an earlier version of Windows than Windows 7, all the educational computer CDs ON this website are available in versions which will run on computers with Windows 3.x, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows XP, and Windows Vista.

As regards running these educational computer CDs on a Computer with Windows 7,
THE GOOD NEWS IS THIS:-
All these CDs can be run easily on 32-bit versions of Windows 7.

And many of the Windows 7 computers currently in use within New Zealand have the 32-bit version of Windows 7 on board.

Please note, however, that - with various significant, important exceptions - most of these CDs will not run on most computers with 64-bit versions of Windows 7.

As regards the significant exceptions, the CDs in this range which definitely can be used on computers with 64-bit versions of Windows 7 include the latest edition of the "Sunlit Pathway to the Samoan Language" CD, the latest edition of "Begin Speaking Rarotongan", the latest edition of "Rarotongan Language Practice", the latest edition of the "Maoritanga Clip Art CD-R", and the latest edition of the "Sunlit Pathway to the Maori Language" CD - which definitely can all be used on computers with the 64-bit versions of Windows 7, as well as computers with 32-bit versions of Windows 7.

But if you are interested in other CDs in this range, if your Computer happens to use Windows 7, it's best to find out whether you have got a 32-bit Version or a 64-bit version before ordering any of these CDs.

Care has to be taken, because here in New Zealand one of the most widely sold versions of Windows 7 is called "Home Premium" - and here in New Zealand, "Home Premium" Windows 7 is supplied on some computers as a 32-bit version, and yet on other computers as a 64-bit version ...

If you are not sure which version of Windows 7 you have got, one way for you to find out whether you have a 32-bit version of Windows 7, or a 64-bit version of Windows 7, might be to go to the Control Panel, and click "System". When the "System" Window opens up, it will probably give you the information you need. If it says "32-bit", you know you have got a 32-bit version of Windows 7; and if it says "64-bit", you know you have got a 64-bit version of Windows 7.

Alternatively, the dealer who sold you the computer just might possibly be able to tell you which version you have.
