Hello all,

Yes, you read the title correctly - looking for an install CD for Quickbooks Version 8 (I know, I know, it's 9 years old - just hoping someone has one stuck away on a bookshelf somewhere).

A good friend of mine uses QB 8.0 to manage the books for a couple of micro businesses - she still has the original box, serial number, etc but the install CD has gone missing. Now she is moving from one computer to another and needs to re-install.

The vendor is not interested since the software is so old - (even contacted Intuit in the US - as far as they are concerned, the software is so far out of support that they will not supply a replacement CD).

She really does not want to spend upwards of R2500 to buy the new version since the old version does everything that she needs.

Here's hoping...
 
Your luck is in - I have the CD. Will create a ISO/ZIP file and PM you the uploaded link.

Wow! Huge, huge thanks.

Once again, the MyBB community comes up trumps.

Awaiting your PM.

PS: If it's easier for someone to fetch a copy of the CD I can arrange for that too - let me know which is easier for you.

Hi Franna,

I am also looking for Quick Books 8 for a customer of mine. Similar situation, he got a new laptop and needs to re-install QB but his installation CD broke in his laptop bag.

Please would you provide me with a link to the uploaded file? It would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,
Andrew

Hi Guys,
I know this thread is super old but was hoping that some savior out there will be able to help me.
We are using Quick books 2002 and really work well with this program. Ive had a pc issue and need to reinstall it but cant find my cd. Does anybody still have the copy that they can share. Id greatly appreciate it. many thanks for the great support offered on MyBB
 
Hi AfricanTech or Franna,

I just updated my business computer to windows 7 and have just realized that the backup of the Quickooks 2008 install is having a dll issue and we need to reinstall it but my disk has gone missing, I am really hopeful that you are still active and have the link or file mentioned above. I hope to hear from you soon.

Many thanks in advance!!!

A client just walked into my shop, DLL error, And I will need to re-install..
And they don't have the disc anymore...

Hope you can help me out
 
Good day

If someone still has the iso/zip file i would also like a copy. I am currently upgrading a clients XP computer to windows 10 and they also do not have the disc.

Your hard work is appreciated.

Thank you

Good luck with trying to get it from Quicken.

Very few software companies will keep links to their old, out of date software - they want you to upgrade to their latest and greatest.

Business is business.

People who bought at that time basically got QB "off the shelf" from Incredible or CNA - I don't think they ever offered official support in South Africa (a mere pimple on the arse-end of the Software market)
 
The only pity for me is that the people requesting this old piece of s/w are inevitably 1 post wonders and don't come back to contribute to the community.

Ah well, I'm an idealist I suppose...
