Derek I have it and it worked perfectly on XP. Waste of time for my lot in Staffordshire though.

Derek it is available on fmp.

Not worth the money in my opinion, but you may get more use out of it.

If you go to this page it will give you the coverage for Derbyshire.

I have the NBI 2nd edition (I upgraded from the1st) but I was rather disappointed with the coverage for my area, Northants.

Researching:
Northampton/Blisworth Northants/Hinderclay Suffolk

if you look on the NBI site it says that the second edition wasn't designed for Vista and then gives instruction how to use it with Vista
I have the 2nd edition what counties are you looking for because some have very little coverage
