I have Broderbund Family Tree Maker Version 10. I have done alot of research and hard work in this software on my ancestry. How can I install this program on my Windows vista 64bit. Upgrade or new driver?
Please reply.
Thanks
To configure the compatibility mode for an application, just locate
the installation directory and right click on the .exe, selecting
Properties from the menu.
Select the Compatibility tab: You can choose to run the program in Windows XP compatibility mode, or even all the way back to Windows 95 compatibility.
Probably the most useful setting to start off with would be to
disable the visual themes and desktop composition, if you can't get
things working. If you are trying to run a video game, you will often
need to choose "Run this program as an administrator". You'll have to
play around with it, but most likely you can get your application
working this way.
To be precise if the program uses 16 bit routines (which it does in this case) then unfortunately there is no way it can be installed on vista 64 bit. There may be a version on developers site for this os. If you want to know a solution then it may be virtual pc (search microsoft). The other solution is to install another 32 bit os like xp X-86 version: dualboot.

I cannot open "Albums", where I have spent many hours posting photos. Is there a techie in New York City (Manhattan) who could rescue me? I originally started my Broderbund program with the 7.0 and 7.5 programs years ago. If I need new software to restore my file, I'm willing to buy it.
