I would think they would either have it or be able to order it for you. Good luck! Do you have a Pfaff dealer near you? I would think they would either have it or be able to order it for you.

Your situation is almost the same as mine. I'm told that I need to get a USB cable/card. I'm having trouble finding anyone that carries it. Do you know where I might get this cable/card? My Pfaff is a 2144 graded up to a 2170 and my OS is Windows 7 64 bit. Thank you. Thank you. Wow! The things one can learn. Thank you. Your situation is almost the same as mine.

A Pfaff dealer just told me yesterday that I would need the 5D software (almost $400) in order for it to work with my Windows 7 now. I have your post above on How you did it by going to the Virtual Machine XP... I haven't gone that route yet, but you also mention downloading VIP. I haven't used my embroidery part of my machine for about 4 years, as we moved, things were in storage, then settling in and so forth. In the meantime my Windows XP computer died and had to get a new computer, which of course has Windows 7. I mainly used my embroidery for making my quilt labels, and recall it being a nightmare to learn how to use it in the beginning, which I've forgotten now, everything I knew! Bottom line, I have the 3D software which of course won't work with the Windows 7, and several other CDs, but I have nothing that is VIP software. Is that something I NEED as well, to work with the virtual XP? When we were packing to move, I packed my Pfaff stuff altogether, or so I thought! I have the dongle, the 3D file assistant, some other CDs, the memory cards, the little docking station to move the cards to the machine, etc., but I have no VIP cd. If I can't get this figured out, I'm going to be stuck buying the $400 5D file assistant software. Thanks for your help, if possible. Leslee I posted on the yahoo forum, but my post didn’t show up.

My computer crashed and the guy who restored it thought he was doing me a favor by installing Windows 7. I love 7 but my 2144 does not. I anxious to try this. Did it slow your computer down any?
