Do older versions of FTM run on computers using Vista? Does anyone know if the older versions would be compatible with Vista?

I have Family Tree Maker 4.0 (almost an antique!) and just downloaded it successfully to Vista.

Thank you Kenneth.....if I bought a new laptop with Windows 7 and 64 bit OS, would the programs in my current 32 bit Vista machine work--or other 32 bit programs?

I held off a long time for the same reason. Rest assured, Vista 64 compatibility was added with the the Power Pack 1 (think SP 1) which also corrected the data corruption problem and added other features. Note, it is a pain as you have to first install from a 32-bit operating system before you can install under Vista 64-bit. In other words, I had to connect my girlfriend's laptop with Vista 32 and start the install before I could ultimately connect my Vista 64 desktop to the EX470. It does work though and I love this product. I'm backing-up automatically, set up a photo share for my friends to access, can trade files with friends and serve all my music / video files to my Xbox 360s over powerline ethernet adapters. I recommend upgrading memory from 512mb to 2gb (HP has lifted warranty restriction against this).

Seagate's website claims all the "Go" series products are compatible with 64-bit Vista: http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=196031. It specifically lists Vista Home premium there, and you can find a download for the 64-bit software on their website, too. They put in bold print that they "now" support 64-bit, so the earlier reviewer was probably right at the time he/she wrote the review.

Not sure about all the versions, but you can always install multiple virtual operation system under Win 8 for old games.They run on my Win 7 for sure.

Brenda, I purchased this product in 2010 and my computer had Vista... I am not sure if this will work for you.. they may have done some updates to their program. I would check into it first. That being said... I do love the program. I am sure if they have done any updates it will be just as good....

well, the description must state that it is 32 bit. And if your system can run windows 7 it should work. That is what I did and now I am running windows 7 on my desktop that came with windows vista...hope that helps

The original didn't work under Vista 64-bit. Does anyone know if this new version works on Vista 64-bit? I know that there's a whole bunch of drivers that do no work in 64-bit, and I had a hell of a time trying to get the old G15 keyboard installed before I gave up and sent it back. Any info is appreciated. Logitech's site doesn't say 64-bit support. I've always been suspicious when there is no mention of that.

If you looked at previous questions and the answers that were given, it appears to work on Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1. I have it on CD, and know it works on Vista just fine on my older non widescreen monitor, however it's still notorious for the dreaded stuck key situation on some games, meaning the key commands for the flippers sometimes stick.

I honestly don't know. I bought it for my child since I used it growing up. We just popped it into our laptop that has Vista6 on it and it worked! Didn't have to download anything.

Diana, Yes, I am running Vista on a Dell XPS 410. It came with XP; so I had some issues with software compatibility for a while, but it all turned out fine.

I am running it on my Vista Ultimate machine and everything is working fine. Only one time did it have an data access anomaly but that was due to a Vista update gone bad, which a reboot fixed. Otherwise I am running a virtual machine off of this drive that I use for development purposes and so far no issues even after some serious rough handling.

I use Windows Vista and finally got it to run. It was extremely slow to load, in fact, so slow that I thought it hung up. Go to their website and see if your PC has the minimum requirements to run.

They claim Windows Vista and Windows 7 compatibility but I seriously doubt trouble-free operation considering their latest driver (as of July 2010) is dated 2007 (before Vista was released!). Besides, there are many claims of the software being very buggy!I would not buy this unit so the question is... where do we find a PSTN to VoIP device that works with the latest version of Windows (Win 7) and the latest version of Skype?

Yes I am currently using with a vista machine, installs and runs without any issues.

I was unable to install the software on vista, windows 7, or XP. I wound up buying TotalMedia6; it works very well, but is an additional cost. You can get a trial version for free, but is only good for a few weeks.

Runs on my Vista x64 machines, no issues so far. I tested it on another Vista x64 machine before installing the full version for my current x64 machine. Both machines are Dell XPS 720s test machine Vista x64SP1 4GBRAM, GTX8800/768MB Final Machine Vista x64SP1 8GBRAM, GT8800/512MB
