Hi Go to the following website: Windows 7 Compatibility Center You will see a Software and Hardware tab that you can use to locate the product you wish to check for compatibility. Select the Compatibility FAQ that will explain how to use the compatibility website. If you find an installed software/hardware item that does not appear on the compatibility list, go to the website of the developer for that product and check for any updates. If you find that the program is not compatible with Windows 7 and the software developer will not support the product on Windows 7, try the following. HOW TO: Install a Software Application using Compatibility Mode If a program written for an earlier version of Windows doesn't run correctly, you can try changing the compatibility settings for the program, either manually or by using the Program Compatibility troubleshooter. To run the Program Compatibility troubleshooter: 1. Open the Program Compatibility troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Under Programs, click Run programs made for previous versions of Windows. 2. Follow the instructions in the troubleshooter. If you cannot install a program, insert the installation disc for the program and, using the troubleshooter, browse to the program's setup file, usually called Setup.exe, Install.exe, or something similar. The troubleshooter is not designed to work on programs that have an .msi file name extension. Make older programs run in this version of Windows Regards, Thank You for using Windows 7 Ronnie Vernon MVP
