Can I use version Version 6.1.0.450 (R12.1) (circa 2002) on a 64 bit Windows 7 computer? It works on Win 7 but not 8. I think it may use a virtual machine.

May I ask why you're trying to use a version that's over a decade old on a new machine?

I've tried a lot but did not get Matlab 6.5.1 (R13.1) to run under Windows7/64. My last impression was, that it was a problem of the installer, not of Matlab itself. Finally I've installed it in a virtual Windows XP/32 and this works smoothly. I had success with the XP-Mode shipped with Windows and with VirtualBox.
