  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

• Are the games that are compatible with Vista, they are also compatible for Windows 7?

  Are the games that are compatible with Vista, they are also compatible for Windows 7?

  Hello Karen W.

  In large part, Yes.  I didn't fall on one that does not work on Windows 7, which was done on Windows Vista.  But by saying that I haven't met one who does not work on Windows Vista and I have a fairly large library of games.

  The only thing that I actually noticied is lowest for the transition to 64-bit, where the 16-bit applications no longer works, and some games just there about 8 years ago still used 16-bit installers.

• 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...

• CC applications are compatible with Windows 10?

• 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

• Age of Empires II - "can't initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw.

  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 ST2410

  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 administrator

  One 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!

• How can I check to see if my system and components are compatible with VISTA, given that the counsel is no longer available and my office will take too many changes to make it compatible with WIN 7?

  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!
