Rob, how did this get off topic? Your TA-824 is an unprotected product. I have the MC on my Vista box, so I guess you might be able to run it in compatability mode. I'm pretty sure my craptop talked to an 824. I specifically bought an XP box as my work machine after Vista couldn't run Nortel BCM software and I'm never going to worry about it again.
There are 13 digits that matter to Pana for TDA registration, Dealer ID, Tech ID, and Dealership ID.
