PABP 1.3: Upgrading PC Charge to v5.7.1I SP9a

Note: PC Charge Version 5.7.1 Release I SP9a is PABP 1.3 certified and the certification lapsed around December 2009. These instructions are legacy instructions - and meant for those who just need to update to the latest 5.71 service pack. Installing this service pack does not make you compliant as it is supplanted by a new release of PC Charge 5.92 that is PCI DSS 1.2 certified.

The most recent version of PC Charge contains stronger security features and you should upgrade as soon as you are available to. Before upgrading we ask that you stop web sales, run an End of Day and create a Config Disk for PC Charge. For detailed steps on creating a Config Disk click here.

These instructions pertain to upgrading to version 5.71 (a free upgrade). However, the suggested course of action is to upgrade to 5.92.

After you have created a Config Disk (a backup of your PC Charge setup files) you can close PC Charge and install the new upgrade.
