How about just upgrading to a newer version of Vutrax?  I've never used it, 
but their web site claims it works on XP, Vista, 64-bit Windows... and even 
Linux.

They're just importing the netlist into PADS though, right?  So only one 
re-drawing?  (What you did in ORCAD schematics to Vutrax schematics.)

It's still poor, although I wouldn't really recommend anyway adopts ORCAD at 
this point -- it's a pretty unimpressive piece of software for the price.
