Why won’t my Sage software work?







Fred is having a bad day. He left work on Friday with a check list of all the things he needed to do in his Sage software on Monday morning.

When he arrived in to work on Monday morning bright and early, he discovered that their IT system had been upgraded over the weekend.

At first, Fred was all excited when he noticed that he had a brand new PC – he had been complaining about his 6 year old PC for ages.

Fred’s excitement turned to horror when he noticed that he couldn’t access his Sage system. What on earth could be the problem?


The moral of the story – check with us BEFORE you upgrade your IT systems. Buying a new PC with Windows 7 may seem harmless, but unless your Sage software supports Windows 7, then you will experience problems.


Quick Checklist of Windows 7 compatibility:

Sage 50 Version 2010 or later
Sage 200 Version 2009 Service Pack 3 or later

Please note that Sage Line 100 and MMS are NOT Windows 7 Compatible.
