Hi upononer6. . .

Welcome to the Tech Support Forum - Vista Support!

You may find a compatibility issue with Vista on this. I suggest that you check these areas for further information if you have not already done so yet:

• The Event Viewer -
START | type eventvwr into the Start Search box | right-click on eventvwr.exe that appears up top | select Run as Administrator | view the various logs starting with the Administrative logs.

• Problem Reports and Solutions:
START | type wercon.exe into the Start Search box | right-click on wercon.exe that appears up top | select Run as Administrator | view "See Problems to Check'.


• Reliability and Performance Monitor:
START | type perfmon into the Start Search box | right-click on perfmon that appears up top | select Run as Administrator | view both the Performance Monitor and the Reliability Monitor.


Regards. . .
