Paint Shop Pro

[Joan Archer]

Just asking if it's possible to run this on Vista.
I have Paint Shop Pro 7 the 10th Anniversary Edition which I used to have on my XP machine, hubby now has that machine and doesn't need it and as I paid for it I certainly don't feel inclined to disregard it if it's possible to use it on my Vista machine.
I know they have been taken over by someone else and could probably get the answer from them but thought I'd get one quicker here than waiting for a reply from their support

Hi joan,

Not sure if this is of any help but I can confirm that Version 8 is fully vista & 7 compatible, so would think that your version 7 would be even if you had to run in XP compat. mode.

Actually just had a look round and it seems it works apart from the multiple screen capture mode and you will need to patch the help files

Have a look for some links here ...

I just loaded PSP7 on Vista x64 last night. I had some old .psp files on disc that photoshop wouldn't open.

it installed fine to program files (x86) and all my layers are fine :D

PSP 8 sucks. I have that also, but it lasted about 10 mins on my old xp laptop.

Thanks Nigel, I'll go look at that link when I've finished catching up on posts in here and 7

Thank you notech, I was hoping it would be OK but wanted to check with others before going to the trouble of starting the install
