I understand that upgrading the OS has some issues, but I was away from BPCS when there would have been much discussion about this.

I've done some searching here, but so far have missed any helpful guidance for our situation.

I don't need lots of grimy details at this point - more like "there is no way to make it run for x reason(s)" or "it can be done, but here is what it will cost" (at a high level).

Michael,

As you may have guessed, if you change the processor feature or serial number of the host machine, you are going to have to enter into discussions with Infor. The price to come back to be covered can be astronomical or just unreasonable - sometimes it depends upon how they're doing that quarter/year.

I've been involved with numerous interactions with Infor from multiple angles due to multiple business reasons. The likely scenario you will run into is that they will charge you a fee to restore business with them and will require you to get back onto maintenance. The best case for your company would be if they would be interested in upgrading to the latest version of BPCS.
