Hi all,

I don't know if this is of any help but I'm running Guide8 in Windows Vista
Home Premium almost problem free.
I copied a full installation from a W2K PC and turned on the "Run in Windows
XP SP2" compatibility checkbox (accessed via right click on guide.exe). This
switch has worked fine for a lot of software (when I first started to use
Vista I thought I was going to go mad in a week but many things run OK with
this trick).
The only glitch so far is that the chart is not drawn when the program is
started. Just force a redraw and everything seems to be OK.
Regards,

Juan Carlos Rosso
