The difficulty to install QuickBooks Pro 2002 on my new Windows 7 system.

I managed to install the program, but when I try to start it, I get a runtime error message!  Program: c: Program Files (x 86) \Intuit\QuickBooks Pro\qbw32.exe.
This application has requested the execution in an unusual way.

Hello Elizabeth,.

What I see on the Quickbooks site, only the version 2007 upwards has full support for Vista.  Since version 2005 and before you had to use compatibility mode to work properly.  So you can either try the compatibility mode to see if it works.

Right click on the executable, select Properties Quickbooks.  There, click on the Compatibility tab.  Use the drop-down list box to select XP SP2 or SP3 of XP.  Use the box and select run as administrator.  Click OK.  Now, try to run Quickbooks.  If this does not work then Quickbooks 2002 is not compatible and cannot run in XP Mode or buy an updated release of the product.

Kind regards
