[amsat-bb] Using Nova tracker in Windows 8.1

[Graham Shirville]

Hi All,

As a user of the Nova programme for many years I have hit a problem when it is running on a W8.1 machine.

Although, when you have selected XP compatibility mode it installs and works ok, after some time it refuses to read the map files and says that they are not present. It still runs the predictions and antenna drivers fine but no map!

All suggestions about how to fix this annoyance will be gratefully received.

thanks and 73
