I just tried to convert a airplane using MDLC MDL Converter and it would not work because I have Windows 7 64 bit operating system. Any way around this, any other options?

Nope...Mdlc is a DOS command-line proggy written for MS 16 & 32 bit systems only. At present there is no 64 bit upgrade for it. If you know anything about dual-booting you can install WinXP as second OS and use it for such conversion activities, then transport the results over to Win7. Or you can install XP or Win98 on a virtual machine that can run inside of Win7-x64 (i use both options). Both of these options require some advanced computer knowledge to master the details and get it right -- too much to cover here. Google can help you sort it out.

Thanks, you confirmed what I feared. I might be able to get a new computer in the next couple of months and if I do I 'll go ahead and buy Windows XP for it. I like XP better anyway. :kilroy:
