     You are talking about MC 3.0?

    Well that's your problem then. Anything before 3.0 will not run on Vista. Can you upgrade?

    And good luck. I really do wish you well.

    But everything on your list there is unsupported hardware and OS. So you are going to need a LOT of luck to get it running.

    And you're gonna need Windows XP Pro.

     Your two choices are :

    Stay with 2.7 and change OS to Windows XP Pro SP 2 32 bit

    or

    Upgrade to MC 3.0 and run Vista Business 64.
