My software worked fine on my old Windows XP. But it won't work on my new Windows Vista. Why?

I tried the Husqvarna Viking dongle drivers for 4D VIP Customizing software on a new Windows 8.1 system, but nothing worked. (It worked fine on my old Vista system). After a few weeks of frustration, I found this site : http://www.safenet-inc.com/support_and_downloads/Download_Drivers/Sentinel_Drivers/.
I downloaded the Sentinel Driver v7.5.8 (they work for Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/2008/2012/Vista & Windows 7&8 (32 bit and 64 bit)), installed it, restarted my computer, and everything worked like a charm.
Somebody should tell Husqvarna about those drivers...

Are you using the heaphones jack? The new HP is a laptop? Open Sounds in Control Panel. select headphones.

look for windows 7 or vista drivers, or right click on program and try to install and use in compatability mode

Remove old drive from computer and install in new computer using ide ribbon. It will connect as a secondary unit and you can then using windows explorer transfer any data on old drive to new one.

No it looks like they stopped the support at the old one, this means they did'nt make any drivers for the old one to function on vista.
Vista uses a very diferent driver model than xp does.
The drivers for xp won't work in any way on vista.

its windows 98Second Edition printer, its not work with windows XP, so find some windows 98 system to use it.

I think it will work fine mate it doesnt matter if its old

:]

If you read the link, you will see vista already have a driver built in http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supAdvice.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&noteoid=86150&type=highlights

the statement below was cut from the Epson website -

Drivers are included with Windows Vista. Just connect your Epson product to your computer and follow the on-screen instructions that Windows Vista displays to guide you through driver installation.

Click here for the link where you can select the precision from the list and download the software and calibration utility for Vista. I assume you were trying to install it with the old cd.
Try this and let me know,

vista can not work on those older systems. change it to xp-os, then re-load the printer driver software.
