Hi,
I use Ulead Cool 3d V3 quite a lot for creating three-d grafics for my personal web sites. Now that I have a new computer that runs Vista, it will not run at all. I could not get it to even open up on my screen. I've used this program with other OS; Windows 98 and Windows XP without any problem at all. If you know of a fix I can download for this, please let me know. I would like to continue using this program.
Here are my system specs:
Dell Inspiron 530
Windows Visita Basic
HP DeskJet F4240 All-In-One
Thanks in advance.
Janet
Windows ten is free and can be loaded onto a flash drive and you can use this to install. Your programs might not be met be your system specifications. Try install or upgrade computer.
SOURCE: Ulead video studio isnt working in vista
The pic above shows videostudio version 8. That is a phased-out product and has no tech support. However, if you have a later version of VideoStudio, you can get a patch at the link below.

Hi,
I went straight to the horse's mouth. I contacted CorelDraw. They told me that Ulead Cool 3D was dead and that there was nothing you could do to make it work with Vista. They have abandon it to concentrate on their other software. So unless you have access to a PC with Windows 98 or XP, give it up. They can't and won't help you.
Luckily, I still do have access to my old machine that I gave to my nephew.
Oh well ... I tried.
PROBLEM:
THE PROBLEM IS THAT DIRECTX WILL NOT LOAD FROM THE DISC AND THE D3DRM.DLL FILE FROM THE DIRECTX SUBDIRECTORY WILL NOT LOAD IN THE MAIN ULEAD DIRECTORY AFTER THE INITIAL INSTALLATION OF ULEAD 3D FROM THE DISC IS COMPLETED.
MY SOLUTION:
I INSTALLED THE ULEAD 3D 3 FROM THE DISC. IF STALLS, CLOSE PROGRAM AND IT WILL START TO LOAD. LET IT LOAD ALL COMPONENTS, JUST IN CASE.
THEN I COPIED THE SUBDIRECTORY OF DIRETX FROM IT'S SUBDIRECTORY ON THE DISC TO THE ULEAD DIRECTORY INSTALLED ON THE HARD DRIVE UNDER PROGRAM FILES. THIS WILL WORK BECAUSE THE FILES IN THIS DIRECTORY ARE NOT COMPRESSED.
I WENT INTO THE DIRECTORY ON THE DISC AND COPIED THE DLL FILE D3DRM.DLL INTO THE MAIN DIRECTORY OF ULEAD 3D ON THE HARD DRIVE.
I CLOSED OUT OF ALL THAT THEN CLICKED THE ULEAD 3D ICON ON MY DESKTOP.
ON THE DESKTOP, THE SCREEN CHANGED AND MADE EVERYTHING LOOK LARGE LIKE OLD 640X800 RESOLUTION. DON'T WORRY, IT WILL CHANGE BACK WHEN THE PROGRAM STARTS LOADING ON IT'S OWN. ON THE LAPTOP, THE SCREEN DID NOT CHANGE.
I WAS CAUTIONED THAT THERE WERE COMPATIBILTY ISSUES. I SELECTED FOR TO DON'T SHOW MESSAGE AGAIN THEN CLICKED [RUN PROGRAM].
I GOT A MESSAGE DIRECTING ME TO ULEAD'S WEB SITE TO REGISTER THE SOFTWARE. I SELECTED TO [REGISTER LATER] AND DON'T SHOW AGAIN.
THE PROGRAM STARTED LOADING.
THEN ONCE IT LOADED, I GOT A MESSAGE TELLING ME HOW TO ADD TEXT AND ELEMENTS. I SELECTED DON'T DISPLAY THIS MESSAGE AGAIN.

THIS SOLUTION ACTUALLY WORKS FOR MY DELL DESKTOP AND MY COMPAQ LAPTOP, BOTH PURCHED WITHIN THE LAST 1-2 YEARS.
