LisaJill Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 Moved for organization. As far as I know - there's not much you can do other than contact the software's designer and see if they have an updated version. =) Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 There is some compability guide in start menu > Accessories, have you tried it? Quote
michéal Posted September 21, 2004 Author Posted September 21, 2004 is it the "Program Compatibility Wizard" in accessories if so I will try it but I think Lisa is right. Let you know Quote
Madmanmcp Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 Click on START | ALL PROGRAMS and look in the ACCESSORIES folder, find and run the PROGRAM COMPATIBILITY WIZARD and see if this will help you get the old program running. Quote
Madmanmcp Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 Looks like I was a tad late... You can also try to set compatibility the manual way. Right-click on the icon (I assume you have one on the desktop) and click on Properties. Now click the COMPATIBILITY tab and then click the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select the operating system from the window underneath. Quote
