    Found some possible workaround:

    here is a “simple” hack which allows you to embed the downgrade procedure in Windows 7.

    Click Start.
    In the Search Box, type regedit and press Enter.
    Navigate to this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftware Microsoft Windows NTCurrentVersion

    In the right pane, click EditionID and ProductName and give them the value which corresponds to a lower Windows 7 edition. Here is an example:

    Windows 7 Home Premium (downgrade from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 7 Home Premium)
    EditionID: HomePremium
    ProductName: Windows 7 HomePremium

    Start your Windows 7 installation by inserting your Windows 7 Disc.
    Now, Select Upgrade as type of installation. Follow the instruction on the screen.
    Reactivate your operating system.”

    If modifying the registry is scary try this application to change it for u:

    And continue with Windows 7 installation…

    Before you start anything make sure you have a backup of your valuable DATA!!!

    Note what was said at #2 but another way that IE11 might be useable for this or similar websites is to run in compatible view. You go to the website, then from IE choose “Tools > Compatibility View settings”. You then add the website and IE11 will behave more like IE10 or earlier. It is for when websites have not updated to match more modern browsers.

    By the way, your specs say Windows 7 but you are on the Windows 8 forum. Which is it?

    Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks
