First, read the System Requirements of your software. i think Quickverse Deluxe 2009 is compatible with Windows XP/Vista. if need any more guidance on technical specification follow Intuit Tech Support .
If you are upgrading XP to Vista, make sure you backup and have the program "Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor"
Download Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=42B5AC83-C24F-4863-A389-3FFC194924F8&displaylang=en
Be Sure to Backup with a removable media such as CD's, Floppy Disks or USB Flash Drives, External Hard Drivers.
Windows Vista Editions:
Windows Vista Home Basic Windows Vista Home Premium Windows Vista Business Windows Vista Ultimate Windows Vista Starter Windows Vista Enterprise
These also include 64-bit.
Lastly, if you have XP and if it's Vista Capable, you don't need to use the upgrade advisor, you are allowed to use any, but you must download the drivers after upgrade.
Hello Friend,
This version is not supported by Vista, you have to upgrade it to "The Print Shop® Pro Publisher™ Deluxe 22 " version.

Go to AVG's homepage and look for a removal tool. Uninstall the software and download Microsoft Security Essentials...It's free and perpetual. You may also consider upgrading to Win 7 or downgrading to XP. Vista is the reason many folks are back to XP and Microsoft's reason for creating Win 7.
I think Intuit draws the support line at 3 years Even though you have probably registered your product, if there is any trouble with it and the new computer, you will be on your own. I think you would be putting yourself in unnecessary jeopardy to upgrade as you describe at this time. (Your business depends on your computer and software, to operate) You must also be aware of Vista troubles.
If you are in the market for a new computer, you may opt for the new Windows 7 OS and possibly upgrade your Quickbooks at the same time for maximum benefit.
If you have the Vista computer - you already have the Quickbooks, it costs nothing to give it a try. Presumably, you have a XP computer with Quickbooks on it now ... If the Vista - Quickbooks combo doesn't work out you could upgrade the Vista to Windows 7 ... you have nothing to loose in this senerio.
I hope I have provided a little insight for you to consider.
Is it possible that you have installed winxp twice? You say that you installed XP Pro sp3 was that an upgrade from xp home? if so then you will need to uninstall one or both versions of XP then install only one.. Make sure you backup any important files first though
Why dont you give Windows 7 a whirl. Im running it and so far i like it better than xp and it stomps vista into the ground.
If your wanting to downgrade to Windows XP pro, Your going to need to reformat the PC. Simply put the media in the drive restart the computer and boot off the CD-Rom and follow the simple instructions.
This may be because you have the wrong drivers installed- i reccomend starting your computer up in safe mode and using system restore go back to a past restore point before upgrading to SP3
then update your drivers before upgrading to SP3 i reccomend drivermax.com to update drivers.
