compatability wizard? what compat wizard

[Guest]

I dont seem to have the compatability wizard here. is it only for those who
upgrade? Is it hidden somewheres else on VISTA? I looked under
programs/accessories not there.

So far I found the following programs NOT FULLY COMPATABLE with VISTA

powerdvd
msn premium
norton security 2006

I didnt think of running compat wiz back then when I just upgraded from win
xp pro but now with everything gone there's no compat wizard to even try.

suggestions?

VISTA pretty to look at but dont use!
WIN XP PRO I sure miss ya!!

If you right click on a program or installer icon don't you get a context
menu with the Compatibility Mode option on it?

To get the compatibility wizard - Click on Start, then Help and Support and
type in the search box for Compatibility Wizard. I hav not found a direct
way to acces it thru Vista but this way will start the wizard for me.

no I dont think I see it when I tried to install my keyboard drivers since
not all the buttons work correctly but still says this prog isnt not
compatable wth this system.

oh well supposed to be just a testing OS so it is.

thanks

Has anyone else installed a program with compatibility wizard and when it
didn't work tried to uninstall and find it goes thru the motions but doesn't
uninstall. Haven't had any problem uninstalling any other program.
