What programs Adobe and versions are compatible with Windows 7?
Buy a new computer with Windows 7, but I don't want to spend a fortune on new versions of other programs I run on an existing XP machine. Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard are compatible with Windows 7? If not, what type of upgrade do need me? Can I run these programs if I'm running the free download "Virtual PC and XP Mode"?
Hi Mbgillis,
Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard are not compatible with Windows 7.
Click the link for the Windows 7 Compatibility Center: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=Adobe%20Photoshop%20Elements%202.0
You can upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.0 from the link below:

You can install the programs mentioned above in Windows XP compatibility mode if you wish.
To change compatibility settings manually for a program, right-click the program icon, click Properties, and then click the Compatibility tab.

I use WIN XP as my main OS and I want to ugrade it for WIN VISTA Home Premium, but the ADVISOR WINDOWS VISTA is no longer available! How will I know if all my components are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA before I buy it?
Hello
You should check with the manufacturers of hardware and program
and use the Vista Compatibility Center
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/
and read the vista system requirements
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/products/system-requirements
__________________________________________________________________
But Microsoft sells more than Vista.
They switched to Windows 7
If you are lucky, you could always find a copy of Vista to your local computer repair store

Hello
I have a problem of Age of Empires 2 running on my new computer. Keeps displaying the following error message: "cannot initialize the graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw. "Someone at - it solutions to this? I have already visited many forums and trying different solutions; None of them helped.
Tried solutions: change the compatibility and as an administrator, switching to 16-bit color, turn off my graphics card, execution of the extension "nostartup" of the game, looking for old patches from Microsoft (which most are now unavailable due to the game being so old). I KNOW that others have been able to get this game to work on the Windows 7 operating system, but with a few other quirks and I KNOW my video card and driver are more than capable of handling this game. Any suggestions?
System Specs:
System manufacturer/model number Dell/Studio 540
Operating system windows 7 home premium 32 bit
6 GB of memory
Graphics card ATI Radeon HD 4350
Monitor (s) displays Reference Dell ST2410Thanks in advance,

I had the above problem with AOEII:Age of the Kings. My brief spec is Windows 7 Ultimate edition (SP1) and a card nVidia 8600 GT. I did the following (make sure you reboot after each installation):
Make sure that you are running the latest patch of AOEII:AOK (2. 0 a):
http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=35
Download and install the latest version of DirectX:
http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=5264
Download and install the latest nVidia Driver suite. I left the autodetect my card software and reset all my default settings. I also installed the full software suite:
http://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
Finally, right click on the shortcut of AOE and click Properties. Click on the Compatibility tab and select the following:
-Run this program in compatibility mode - choose Windows XP Service Pack 2 (!) NOT 3!)
-Disable visual themes
-Disable the Composition of the Bureau
-Run this program as an administratorOne of the above options maybe work on its own, but that's what I had to do to make it work and I tested it after each step.
Good luck!

I am running WINDOWS XP on my desktop and would like it ungrade to WINDOWS VISTA, but I don't know if all my devices are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA! I would like to upgrade my desktop computer for WIN 7, but it would take too many changes, so I'm going to update my laptop for WIN 7 and I have another laptop running WIN XP! So basically I want to have at least one of the three operating systems (XP, VISTA and WIN 7) on my different computers! WIN XP on my laptop older, WINDOWS VISTA on my desktop (currently in XP) and WINDOWS 7 on my laptop latest (running VISTA)! I just want to know how to find out if there is a way to see if all my components on my desktop are compatible with WINDOWS VISTA, but the Advisor WINDOWS VISTA is no longer available? I used the WIN 7 Advisor to check what is required for me to upgrade my desktop PC to WIN 7 but there are too many changes that need to be done! I also used the WIN 7 Advisor on my new laptop and it has only a few changes that need to be done and that is why I want to upgrade my laptop to WINDOWS 7 and my desktop for WINDOWS Vista!

Need to know what video mini-DV cameras are compatible with Vista
I recently upgraded to Vista, only to find my mini-DV camcorder is not compatible :( I need to get a new one anyway, but I want to make sure that the new is compatible with Vista before buy you. The camera must be also mini-DV, like all my work is on mini-DV tapes. Is there a link to a Web page that lists the video camera models supported by Vista? Any help would be appreciated; my work pile up!
Hi the SpinelessIdiot,
Microsoft has information about hardware compatibility for different versions of Windows, including Windows Vista. You can track the information of compatibility from the link below.
See this link:
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/search.aspx?type=hardware&s=mini%20DV
Check what DV - min camcorders are compatible with Windows Vista.
You can check the characteristics of the available camcorders and see one that meets your need.
Similarly, you can follow the compatibility information about other products. Search by product category (hardware and software) and the name of the product, or browse through the categories of hardware and software. Use the search to find one or two products. You can also use Browse to find information for multiple products from the same vendor, or product suppliers in a common category or subcategory.
I hope this information helps!
Kind regards

Where can I find what kind of phone charges are compatible with the CMF?
I've recently updated one of our CME to CME v10.0 systems
I noticed that even if CMEv10 the Firmware support page shows how compatible phone for my 7911 phones is 9-2-1TH1-13,
My 7911 running load phone 8-4-3-16 that all seem to be save and it works very well.
So I must conclude that 7911 phone charging 8-4-3-16 is compatible with GCE v10.0
Where can I go to find out what kind of phone charge versions are compatible with GUY or perhaps, at least, where I can find loads what kind of phone are no longer supported by a version of the CME?
Hi Jared,
Specific versions of CMF are tested with the versions listed on the doc "requirements" as you mentioned (linked below), but are not limited to these versions of firmware. The phone charges/firmware is completely independent of the CME/IOS version. And it is often appropriate to upgrade or downgrade the firmware of the phone on CME levels and is fully supported :)
I would look at the upgrade of the firmware 8-4-3 for the 7911 BUT you need go to an intermediate version of the midpoint as 8-5-2 at first because of the "important notes" below;
Questions for SCCP firmware update
Note for all the firmware updates SCCP firmware version versions prior to 8.3 (3) for version 8.5 (3) or higher, you must first upgrade your firmware to version 8.5 (2). Once you have upgraded to version 8.5 (2), you can upgrade your IP phone to version 8.5 (3) or later.
See you soon!

All of the applications included in eLearning Suite 2.0 are compatible with Windows 10?
All of the applications included in eLearning Suite 2.0 are compatible with Windows 10?
Probably not. Certainly not spec'd to work with Windows 10, as 'eLS 2.0' is quite old now and well before the 10 Windows.
The latest version of eLS is version 6.1, and even programs included with this sequel released before 10 Windows.
In fact, it looks that they have completely abandoned support for any version of eLS. The post on this forum just before this one, I pointed the user to eLS download page. It controls today, it redirects to the Adobe Captivate page.
While you might have some programs in eLS 2.0 to work on Windows 10, so he is certainly a risk.
Flash, Photoshop, and Dreamweaver can work very well under Windows 10 32-bit, but I'm pretty sure that you will have problems with Captivate 4 and presenter.
And I think that the risk runs even more high under 64-bit Windows 10. Note all programs of eLS 2.0 back to CS4. It is quite old now...

He has indeed incorporated, but this isn't the latest version and from what I can see there is no way to upgrade. My Flash player crashes several times a day, and although sometimes I only need to restart my browser, it usually forces me to restart my computer. Frustrating to say the least.
