Solution: Most ‘netbook’ computers come with Windows XP (or Vista 32) installed so seaBILL programs will run fine on them. If you want to try the latest version of one of our programs on your netbook, just download it from this web site and install it. If you’re trying to install a seaBILL program from a seaBILL CD, put the CD in a computer with a CD drive and copy the file ‘bsasetup.exe’ (or ‘ccsetup.exe’ for Conflict Checker or ‘portbsa.exe’ for PORTABLE bsa) from the CD to a flash drive (or email it to yourself). Once you have that file on the netbook, you can install the program by running that program on the netbook computer. To make back ups (or SEND entries from PORTABLE bsa), you’ll probably want a USB drive since that is the easiest, most secure way to transfer data from the netbook. Remember that, to be safe, you’ll want multiple flash drives for back ups in case something happens to one of them.
