MT4 versions which will run on Virtual PC on a PowerPC-based Mac

 

Hi all,


I'm successfully running MIG's MT4 build 208 on Virtual PC (Win XP Professional SP3) on my PowerBook G4.

It actually runs very well indeed.

And all of my EAs run fine when compiled on build 208 and run on a real PC with build 220.


The reason that I am running build 208 is that terminal.exe always crashed on startup when I tried build versions 218 and 220.

Build 208 just happened to be the only other version I could find online.


Questions:

1. Has anyone any idea why this may be happening and/or how to fix?

2. What are the shortcomings of version 208 when compared to the latest version?

3. Will MT5 work for me - crystal balls at the ready ;-) ?


Many thanks in advance.

And hello to all - I'll be spending a bit of time on the forum. Have only been introduced to forex trading a few weeks ago and have been busy writing EAs. Great fun.


Regds,

CB.
