Why I can not install my copy of Quark Express 5 in Windows 7?
I try to install my old copy of QuarkXpress 5 on my new computer with Windows 7. The installation is very slow getting started and if it does not start, nothing happens. I'm assuming that Windows 7 does not like some legacy software.
Hello GPW4YSP,
If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
Use the following steps:
(1) right click on the program
2) click Properties
3) click on the Compatibility tab
(4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.
Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows
If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.
If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.
Thank you

Why I can not install SP1 in Windows XP version 5.1?
My Dell C840 Hardrive Laptop just died including the battery. I replaced them both. I put a larger HD-130 GB. I reinstalled the original version of Windows XP 5.1
After installation I downloaded Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3. None of them move. Microsoft Helps - gave me a link to download the Service Pack 1a. I downloaded it, but in the midst of unpacking and installation, it stops and says the communication server with unresponsive. I still click on re - try and nothing happens. After several re - try with the same result, I get a dialog box with this message: ' the following error is produced so that the service pack 1 Setup attempted to download files of Service Pack 1 of the internet. " The server did not respond. If the error persists after that you clicked several times, go to the Windows XP Service Pack site and select "problems downloading the Service Pack" that will give you instructions on how to download a version of the Service Pack does not require an Internet connection during installation. " Found no solution on"download service pack issues. "
Because this Windows XP 5.1 worm has Internet Explorer 6 - Microsoft sites have errors on the page and IE always crashes. I tried to switch to IE 8, but it will not install and still the "Entry Point not found" error
When I click on "windows update". It brings me to this link: support.microsoft.com/kb/2497281/en-us. But none of the solutions on the page works. I tried all.
Believe it or not, I have 3 desktops (2 windows based and an Apple MacPro) and this laptop Dell Latitude C840 with windows XP version 5.1 (which module HD and the battery died and I replaced and am trying to load the windows original XP disc supplied with the notebook). I've done with computers for over 20 years. The only ones I had problems were windows-based computers. Never had any problems with Mac. I was hoping that modern Microsoft has improved. If this problem is solved so maybe they have. Does anyone have a solution?
OK, it's first of all, 'Mac', not 'MAC '. It is an abbreviation of "Macintosh", not an acronym. MAC stands for Media Access Control. And you're crazy if you think that the updates of the system for Macs don't cause problems. Just visit the Apple Support communities.
There clearly something put on listening to the top with this machine more than just the hard drive and the battery. Works very well if you can, download SP2 and SP3 (you can ignore the SP1) machine, you know, then use an external hard drive or USB key to pass them to the affected machine and see if you can install.
Use these links to download:
Service Pack 2: http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=28
Service Pack 3: http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=24

I tried to update the drivers (in windows 7) and nothing has worked. I also tried to install the VM from sun and I am able to save my quark file, but are still unable to print.
HelpYou do not say that if you have checked to see if Quark 6 is compatible Windows 7, Quark 8 is the current version, then I suggest that you check with them to http://www.quark.com/ to see if a) Wuark 6 is compatible or b) if upgrading to Quark 8 will work.
