Had to reload computer. After reloading EOS Utility (from original CD), the utility will load, but all options are grayed out,

You need an updater for Windows version and a later version for macOS.

As alluded to, it is OS dependent. Looks like W8.1 or macOS 10.14 are the latest compatible OS versions.
