Don't know what the problem is, but definately not a Wintex/Vista compatibility issue.

I've been running Wintex on my laptop (Vista Business os) for over a year now with no problems whatsoever. Currently running Wintex version 5.3 build 3 beta 10.

Try a re-installation. If it still fails then try right clicking the app and run it as administrator.

If still no joy then post back.

do not install adobe Reader 9 is Mass up your pc Big Time Spent the last 4 Hours resting up my whole laptop

I've stuck with reader 7.08 as all further versions seem to do weird and wonderfull things !!!.

Only problem is whenever you try and find a previous version all links kick you straight onto version 9-apart from one site I found that keeps all the earlier ones for the reasons like you've just found .
