It is the companies that do not want to pay to upgrade to get compatible with it. nm

VISTA IS COMPATIBLE
I dont know who told you VISTA was not compatible but it most certainly is! I bought a new laptop with Vista and have been working without any problems whatsoever. If you're having a problem downloading it, it's because you must first sign in as, run as administrator...then it will download for you...
Vista is not compatible with many programs out there yet. (sm)
From what I hear, Vista and MOST transcription platforms are not compatible.
Just found out, Vista NOT compatible

just in case anybody else was wondering.


Is the MDI platform compatible with Vista? nm
nm
Any company compatible with VISTA?

Which companies have Vista-compatible platforms?

Does anyone know if ChartScript is compatible with Windows Vista?
I just ordered a new HP laptop with Windows Vista, and I was wondering if anyone knows if the ChartScript.net platform will run on Vista without any problems. I want to be able to take my laptop with me when I travel so that I can work on the road.
Bayscribe platform is compatible with Vista.
You just need to find a company that uses Bayscribe. There may be other platforms but I don't know of any.
Keystrokes' ads all say WindowsXP or 2000. Vista is not compatible sm
with most platforms, which is not the fault of the company.

You were not fired; the offer letter states that employment is pending IS approval of your computer. Vista is NOT compatible with most MT platforms at this time. No one would have told you to purchase that. We do just the opposite and tell everyone NOT to purchase VISTA as it is does not work with our hospitals.
Not true anymore. More platforms are Vista compatible. sm
I work for Keystrokes and bought a new computer about 3 months ago. I asked if Vista worked and I was told that it is about 50/50 right now and more are compatible all the time. This is everywhere, not just Keystrokes.


LOL, they still aren't compatible with Vista or Word 2007...

I wanted to use my own computer and get rid of the RENT on TT computer, but Vista is not compatible.
Good way to make them money.  Not have to upgrade software so that Vista is compatible with Vista.  Huh?
Any TransTech unable to get into Dictaphone WordClient early this a.m.?????

Unable to work due to system being down.  IDC3 down. 


There seems to be one problem after another of recent -- either no work, low work or systems problems. 


A few are compatible, but not all. More are becoming compatible though which is nice. sm
We are the mercy of the hospitals except those that are on DQS now.

Yes, I do. Was this upgrade something that I would (sm)
have seen happening on my screen?  Because if so, I didn't see anything unusual anytime.  I'm really confused now.
Upgrade equipment
Upgrading your equipment, I cant make enough money to pay for upgrading the equipment!  I have been sitting here all day, since 7:30 this morning, trying to get a decent line count and Im still only at around 500 lines..hardly any work all day..just about the worst I have ever seen it.  If and when I decide to move on, Im gonna have to go with a company that supplies the equipment.  Right now, this pay check I probably will just about be able to pay my bills and I need new tires!  LOL!  Well, I will be sitting here tonight till about midnight, hopefully some work will build up in the system.
what the heck is there to upgrade anyway on a DD?
nm
Well, this is a significant upgrade from SM
previous--Keystrokes will definitely now be on my list for possible employers.  I think you've really opened yourselves to a much larger talent pool with the improvement!
When was there an Ex-Text upgrade??

nm


Spheris upgrade?
I have been down for the past 2 days due to computer problems. I was wondering if anybody else has been down. Also, I doubt I will get any down time.
Windows XP - do you have to do the Microscoft upgrade? (sm)

I've heard it's flawed and am afraid to do the time change upgrade.  Will it show that all the reports I do are an hour ahead?  I work on Ex-Text.


Transtech did ExText upgrade on 6/6/07.
When we logged onto the system ExText did an automatic upgrade on that day.  You must work for Transtech?
You say word 2003 upgrade. Is this

I didn't have to upgrade because I had it already but if its the same company I think the QA person can use a class in learning how to deal with people without rudeness. 


an upgrade? mean newer version?
This should not be an end of the year thingee seems to me.  I would ask what exactly an upgrade means. No reason not to ask for the facts. Does it mean an upgraded version of MedRite or upgrade to a newer type platform or just what does it mean.
Company Board Software Upgrade.

Nice people, but they need a major upgrade.
:(
It was slow before this last upgrade. Tech support is sm
wonderful as well. I don't find it slow.
Stinks, doesn't it? Seems like everytime they do an upgrade sm
the lines get tougher to get.
If they are supposedly AWESOME
why do they have so much turnover and why are there so many posters who worked there and left? Don't you have to wonder about a company that is so great but still has to advertise?
Anybody know anything about who SPI supposedly bought yet?
I really hope its not Medware.
I'm on TWS too. Supposedly yes for spaces.
xx
Supposedly 5+ years but have you seen some
Unbelievable, and you would think they just started in the MT business.
The other person supposedly sm
owed the $12,000 was supposedly in India and she supposedly had been paid.  This is similar posting, same MTSO and a lot of money owed.  Strange.
these were supposedly large sm
companies that have been around awhile.  I am hearing a lot of MTs going through the same thing.  Its getting ridiculous!
when they didn't supposedly even know
yeah right. I don't believe anything they say, or that any promises will remain in effect for long, keep hearing: in the foreseeable future, at this time, as far as we know...they sold you down the river...why give them the glory of your presence and hard work. Say NO.
The solution center's memo of an upgrade to the system SM
in the next couple of weeks (not on company computer right now so don't remember exact date) includes release notes that says the issue of the platform freezing will be corrected. I hope this fixes some of my own problems.
They are supposedly a Christian organization
sss
If they are out of NC, supposedly their software is very efficient.
I have not worked there, but talked to them when they were trying to start up the company about 2 years ago.

Supposedly this was not real patients - sm
Someone in authority checked and it was supposedly test patients that sounded very real.  I don't know for sure as I don't work there but this is what was said. 
Supposedly if you send anything to India you can't put an ad up for an MT BUT sm

Alltype sends everything after 8 p.m. EST to India to be done overnight and THEY are allowed to have an ad up here. 


Cornerstone in NJ, Zylomed, Transcend, TransTech, EFD are those that come immediately to mind, but that is just a couple compared to the fact that I know others would never send to India.


the normal standard supposedly is sm
1 minute of dictation equals 10 lines. Obviously if its a slow dictator then you make out really good. If its a really fast person, not so good. I worked on the minute basis for several years and did fine.

Given the climate of the way these companies don't want ot pay for spaces, headers, etc it might not be a bad deal anymore. I guess it depends on how fast it takes you to turn around the number of minutes you need to type.

Good luck!
Supposedly starts 10/06 and will continue
into the 3rd quarter of next year. I would hope they would let us know, at the very least, which accounts are going first and a time frame for the rest of this year.
Memo specifically said upgrade would address the platform freezing up.

If you search old posts, they supposedly don't pay much at all, even for experience. nm
s
I can't believe a supposedly professional adult said bite me! HA!!! sm
Now we ALL want to work for Proveros and get invited to bite the management woohoo!
Supposedly, editing would be faster than straight typing
and the VR would be ONLY for those doing editing. Not everyone will be doing editing (at Transcend).
Supposedly Spheris is sending reports out by specialty, SM
except don't expect the same rate of pay as MQ. With Spheris, or any other company where you must use their piece of ---- equipment, the line counts can be, shall we say, variable.

I really wish you luck. If you don't need benefits, try a smaller company. Put resume out there. Might get some hits.
