Yes, that I can understand - change is often a problem in matters like that
though I am surprised that the firm in question hadn't checked for such
problems before such a large upgrade.  Perhaps they had been running
Windows xxx for so long that there might be a problem simply didn't occur
to them.  I have 'fond' memories of the days when we used to get serious
upgrades to RISC OS and all the scrabbling around that used to be done to
get all our programs and devices working happily again!

Thanks for the response.
