According to this there are compatability issues with PSP right up to version 10 with Vista. 10 appears to be the first on that is completely compatable with the Vista OS Here is a link that might be useful: PSP/Vista compatablilities

Hi Elly, I have been searching and wanting a laptop for at least 2 years now so I can participate more on these forums etc. and making "goodies" with my software programs where sitting at a desktop gets pretty tiring at "my old age" (smiles) Not a teenager anymore. I FINALLY found a laptop to my liking and $$ but it is a 64 Bit machine and I certainly would not want it if I could not use Jasc PSP's on it. Can't contact Jasc as they are no longer. Hopefully I will find out so I can get down to business here. Urlee

YES! Elaine, That is exactly what happened to me with PSPX when I first got it so I uninstalled it and went back to PSP8. Then I reinstalled it and it worked fine BUT------------------- Now I found out something is wrong with the ROTATE feature! When I have all layers hidden, and one highlighted to be rotated, they ALL ROTATE! I am in the process of e-mailing Corel about it. ~Urlee!

I GOT IT FIXED I finally just deleted EC 4000 & put it back on & it worked.. I tried what is in the post above but it didn't work. NOW I need a little help in PSP 8 still. I'm getting the message that my auto save is corrupt.. can I fix that? Auto save is VERY important to me as I get booted some.. quite a bit really. Also I can't figure out how to make a gradient from 2 colors in a tube. When I put it on Grad. I always get a black & white grad. Hope I don't have to delete PSP8 & start over But if I have to I will. Dar
