Not a problem with Vista. I've been using its 64-bit version for 2 years and it's always worked fine for me!

Have you tried running in compatibility mode for xp? What are your computer specs?

remember win3.1 ? or DOS? Pfft. I started on a TRS-80 Model I. I remember savin' to cassette tape! CLOAD, anyone? ...and yes, people still bring DOS machines into our shop, but Win 3.1 HAS been gettin' scarce recently.... Oh yeah? Back in my day, we had to program in binary. They didn't even give us "1"s to work with, either, so we have to type the "0" REALLY hard. ;D Actually, my parents just dropped off an old book of BASIC programs they'd given me as a kid. They was supposed to run on "any computer running BASIC", but there were coding errors I had to fix. I can still read the notes I scribbled to get it to work on the TRS-80. THAT was educational! You kids with your GUIs have no idea how easy you have it now. ;D Oh, and Conman? Initial benchmarks show NO real speed difference 'tween Vista and Win7.
