[SBE] Imtech Video Wall

[Thompson, Pat]

There are a number of things broken when migrating to Vista; however, Vista does support compatibility mode for XP, Windows 2000, etc. So before you conclude that an old program will not run under Vista you need to give the compatibility feature a try.  It's not a cure for everything but it did allow me to run a favorite XP only program under Vista.  You must choose compatibility mode when first doing the install.

It's worth a look.
