That's very true of a lot of software. You need to buy a later version that is Vista compatible. If you purchased your program from Roxio, they might offer some kind of upgrade price. There are also several free open-source CD/DVD burner programs available for download that you could look into. A Google search will help you locate some possibilities.

Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.5 Platinum and Vista

What have you tried to install the software. I have found that many software CD's or DVD's need to simply be opened by right-clicking on the drive's icon and selecting the 'Explore' option. When the disc icons are shown, select the Setup.exe or Autorun.exe and the software will install. If after installing the software doesn't run, try running it in compatibillity mode for Windows XP.

Have Roxio 7 and want to install it on Windows Vista

Easy Media Creator 7 is not supported on Vista. Easy Media Creator 9 and above are only supported. Anything lower may be able to go onto Vista, but Tech Support is not going to be able to assist you if you have problems.

Driver

Download and install adobe reader for manual, if needed
use Get Adobe Reader button on this page
http://www.adobe.com

Manual link (two choose based on directions)
http://www.bushnell.com/customer_service/manuals/binoculars.cfm

There may be no driver required for vista for the USB access to the camera.

However one of the manuals indicate Roxio may provide updates for photosuite. No assurances there are that either link to provided software is applicable to your version however generally updaters will not update the incorrect software. There is also no notation that these are or are not Vista Compatible.

This Vista support link may help
