Badly let down by all!
Artmasterpro won't install under vista. Gives an insatller erroer 1722.
fo2pix suppliers of what was a £400.00 programme have gone belly up and now
offer no support. So I can only run this fantastic programme on XP. Ok so
Microsoft offer free virtual pc so I can basically run vista and xp on one
machine. Great will solve my problem.........NO.**** Just been to local store
PC world to find all their insatllation disks for XP have been withdrawn.
Just sitting here thinking, cursing and wondering if latest version of apple
mac runs this software. Any other sugestions.

There are other places in the world to buy Windows XP besides your local
store. Amazon UK might have some and I'm sure there are plenty of online
stores that deliver to the UK. I use NewEgg.com but you'd probably be
better off using someone based in your country because of shipping charges.

And in answer to your last but one sentence, certainly I could run a
Windows program on my MacBook but I'd need to either do a dual-boot
(Boot Camp) or virtual computing (Parallels or VMware Fusion). And in
all cases, I'd need a copy of the guest operating system (XP).

Hi Malke, thanks for advice. Between my initial posting and your reply had
done a lot of "google searching" and came to the same conclusion as you
sugested. I did indeed find retailers in UK selling windows XP.
Thanks for your responce.

It may be too late to post to this thread but I just found it. I am
running Art Artmasterpro on my Vista x64. You need to install it as an
Administrator and also check the box to have it run as XP compatable. It
is a bit wonky sometimes but it does work.... hope this reaches you and
helps. The thing to do once you get it installed and working is to back
up with Norton Ghost, then you never have to install it again. I am also
running Art Creata which is their what you see is what you get version
and it didn't even blink when it was installed on Vista.... Good luck.
