Does this work on Windows Vista? If so how can I get this program to actually start? I have Windows Vista and downloaded the program and I cannot get this program to even start.
Thanks
James

The error I am getting says it cannot allocate the memory and is shutting down.

Hi James. I can confirm that it has ran well on Vista for myself. Update your drivers from the manufacturers website (what video card do you have btw?) and run all the Windows updates, try turning off UAC, etc. Let us know how it goes.

You dont have enough memory!
This may not be the case, but if you have a problem, try asking a question and give details about your problem. What you have here is allot like me saying 'My car will not start' and expecting someone to help me....

I would guess, just going from what little information you offer, and im going to say this nice... You dont have enough memory!

Actually Caylo that is the error I got as well. It's not a matter of memory, just the video card drivers could be out of date and it doesn't know what to do. Like Kenneth said James, make sure your drivers are up to date. Don't rely on the ones that came with Vista, as they are in the case of mine, very old XP drivers.

Also the fact that you(Chip) already mentioned to be sure James had the 'latest video card drivers', to what James replied with the error message he is seeing. So either James did not update his video drivers, as per your suggestion, OR it is NOT the same error you have experienced.

Yes, but my point was one should try and offer as much supporting information about any issues as possible, not expecting other people to read ones mind.

AS for the system here you go.
OS - Windows Vista Ulitmate
CPU - Dual - Pentium D Dual Core 3.51Ghz
Video - Geforce 7600 GS 512 MB
Ram - 4 GB DDR 6400
HHD 8 - 500GB SATA2 on Raid
I have been able to run any program with no issues until this one. But it ended up being a driver issue with the video card.
