Just reminded of another open source software: http://worldvista.org/ would this one be any easier to install?? Thanks guys

Hi Armageddon. Installing linux this way i must admit certainly does sound alittle daunting, and im simply not confident enough that even if i did mange to install linux, i would struggle with installing all the gnu health software. Whilst there is other suitable software out there (oscar mcmaster, openemr) these seem tricky to install also. Its alittle disappointing as gnu health seemed to offer all the features and more. Nevermind, back to the drawing board for now! Thanks for the advice! :)

Hi Plastic nev thanks for replying. I wasnt aware of that and i will have to take a look at upgraing from windows 7 to professional. It certainly gives me another option :)

Hi Synapse thanks for the reply, so how would i go about creating a usb bootable linux?

Thanks for the reply Armageddon. Ok so how easy/hard would it be for a not so savvy computer user to install and set up? Also what (if any) are the downsides of installing virtual box? Thanks

Hi Armageddon thankyou for the reply and taking the time to help me with this problem. The alternative oftware you mentioned is one which we have looked at but lacks some of the core features we would like. Really GNU Health is the ideal software. You mentioned about the tar.gz i dont really understand this but in simple terms would we be able to use this software on a windows system? Thanks

I think i came across that one myself Armageddon! It seemed to offer me everything from free pc scans to free smiley emoticons- but not a simple straightforward download for the actual gnu health software! Thanks for your help

That would be great! Thankyou Armageddon!

Hi Synapse thanks for the reply. I am using windows 7 home edition. The only install instructions i have are here : http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GNU_Health/Installation these give very detailed instructions if using linux but not windows. The website of GNU Health is here: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/health/

Hi all. I run a non profit organisation and have recently came accross some software which would be of great use. The software is GNU Health. Although i believe this is a software predominantly for Linux, it can be set up on a windows os. The problem....after 3 weeks of trying (no exageration) we cant seem to get the software installed on our system as none of us are computer savvy! If someone would be willing to just advise us on the install or even be willing to install for us via team viewer we would be more than grateful. (Im not sure if im allowed to post the link the the software i am referring to here, but if anyone can help i can give you any info you need):) Thanks All
