I can not get the Computrax program to load on my new comp with W10 (which I dislike). Does it just not work or load on W10. I have tried everything even my original disc.

Thanks Gene

Possibly you may try to want to try (right click on the mouse) "Run as administrator" when installing and /or running the software.
I have it running on my Windows 10 computer without a problem.
My system is 64 bytes.

My apologies are in order.
Being as I haven't used this software in quite a while and which I do have installed on my windows 10 computer, I tried to run an old data file and found that it would not work with a BRIS standard data file on this system. I received an error message.
I will now have to run it on my old Windows XP computer.


I believe, and as the software states, you can run it on a Windows XP or Windows 7 operating system.

Hi all....

I was a successful Computrak user many years ago and then life got in the way.

Hope I can find another copy of the software as my old laptop is no longer running and I'm ready for a come back :-)

Hope all my friends here are doing well

Lindsay Hurst

I don't have the software but recall it uses Brisnet files. I had actually emailed Rube Boxer back in 2020 inquiring about the software but for whatever reason I never pulled the trigger. I see website is no longer up but I took a chance and sent an email to Rube and his son last week but, no reply. Years back I used HTR and I liked it but couldn't justify the monthly outlay for data (I'm a small bettor and only play on weekends). I regret not giving CompuTrak a try and Rube seemed like a real gentleman.

It seems like every software either stopped working, doesn't exist anymore or they're web-based. I think Equisim was by far the best if it was still up. But for now, I have no more faith in these softwares anymore. I guess I'll go back to the time when it was paper and pen.

Bris had a Free Software download link for Compu Trac 2006:

http://www.brisnet.com/library/softw...trak-setup.exe

I'm using Windows 11, maybe an older Windows version will enable the program. Good Luck if you try.

Hi Dogkatcher,


Thanks for the heads up.
It's been a long time since we last conversed.
It's nice to hear from you.

I am actually a registered subscriber of Computrak.
The version I have works with the current operating systems.
I never really used this software very much or put in any time learning what this software was capable of. Now, after many years I recently picked it up again and after lot's of studying, testing and practicing I have concluded that this software in fact, was better then anything I had come across.

Rubin Boxers work was probably, in my humble opinion, is one of or is the best and quickest methods that exists. It is in fact a work of genius. I decided that this application would be my sole handicapping device.

Rubin used his mathematical and engineering skills to produce a product that indeed makes winning at the races a reality.
Unfortunately and to my best knowledge, this software is no longer available. The original site no longer exists.

In an effort to constantly improve my skills with this software, I decided to reach out to some of the successful users of CompuTrak.
I was also hopeful that LRH4 ( Lindsay Hurst) would re-instate his old web page and users group.

I've sent LRH4 an email but evidently and for whatever the reason might be, he has chosen not to respond.
Hopefully, we will here from him in the near future.


I believe a CompuTrak users group would be a winning proposition for those users that are seeking a complete understanding of it's correct usage. I believe they will soon learn what the true winning capabilities of this software are and can be going forward.



I have sent you a PM.
