in case you thought Ninja Trader won't run on W2K SP4
I'd installed NT's demo a couple of weeks ago without problems then
uninstalled it
Wed I had to do an hd format then installed the NJ demo via:
http://www.mirusfutures.com/onlinefuturestrading_demoaccount.htm
this time NJ wouldn't install - 4 error messages and contacting Support
it was suggested I install 'MS Jet Database engine' which I did but no
improvement; Support also said the minimum OS is XP - I didn't know, but
the first error msg stated 'Microsoft Data Access Components MDAC v 2.6'
were missing so I installed them and voila â NJ installed and all appears to
be working correctly, realtime feed verified with alternate, order entry ok tho
it's within the computer
I do not know of course if there may be conflicts somewhere else
with this NJ-W2K combination, won't be using many of the order
entry functions - just the B/S/C, not going live for a few weeks
but if anyone is/has used this combo please advise particularly if
there's been any problems
