Contact the makers of that particular software for assistance. The
message cited makes it fairly clear that it's the program that is having
the problem, not the OS.

Is it not Vista which is a "particular" OS ?

No. The OP clearly said he was installing a 3rd party software
product, and it was that product that was giving him the error message.

Hi kanjiman.

Right click on the shortcut to the program and select 'Run as Administrator'
to launch the program for the first time.

In Vista, even though you have an administrative account, it runs as a
standard user unless and until your administrator credentials are required.
In this case, the program needs your administrative credentials to launch
for the first time. A fully Vista-aware program would give you a UAC prompt
to provide your administrative permissions.
