José, We haven't been getting an reports of problems unique to 64-bit Vista. A faster system with more RAM will process the utilities in Legacy quicker although I don't know how much quicker g My first computer had 4 MB or RAM and I thought that was a lot! Thanks for using Legacy. Sherry

Hi, Jose I'm running Legacy 7 on a 64 bit Vista system. I have 4 gb ram a dual core processor. However, i only have a little over 11,000 people in my file, so your results may vary! I'm running Vista home premium. Lost my ability to fax, but otherwise I've really had no problems with Vista,

No problems at all. I actually used Vista from it's release with few problem's. Most peoples issues are with drivers for existing equipment, however if your buying a new PC with Vista already installed on it, you shoudln't have any of these problems. Keith -Original Message- From:

I have Windows Vista Home Premium on a Toshiba laptop. When I got it, it ran slow which I thought was strange for a new PC. I uninstalled most of the junk programs that came with it and cleaned up the registry. That helped improve the speed some. After a couple of days, I got used to Vista and

Hi Mary, No problems with Vista and Legacy here. Outside of the initial setup and nag screens, it shows it is a solid OS. And as others have answered, the programs that did have a problem running at the beginning, their programmers found a fix and it all works great. JMO, Christina On Thu, Apr

Hi Mary, See: http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/helpWindowsVista.asp but I'm still quite happy to steer clear of Vista. I understand that Microsoft is bringing forward the release of its next operating system. Perhaps that says something about Vista. Cathy At 09:36 AM 18/04/2008, you wrote:

Ah Cathy - I have had Vista for nearly 12 months and have had NO problems at all with Legacy and/or any other program. Initially I had one or two programs that would not work, but an email to the program producers soon fixed that as they sent me a 'driver' that fixed them up - programs that

I wouldn't recommend Vista to my worst enemy -- okay, maybe my *arch* enemy, but no one else. My printer doesn't work like it's supposed to -- after six months I'm still trying to get a handle on that. My son's MP3 player that we got him just a few months before we bought this computer

Ron, The rule of thumb with software minimum requirements is to double everything they say for optimum use. Therefore, doubling the 1GB for full use would result in the 2GB quoted. As for the 20GB of free disk space: The more space you can give it the better off you are. Glen Ballard

There is also the other issue. Will your peripherals, i.e., printers, scanners, modums, FAXes, etc., run on Vista? I, for one, will be very, very cautious before jumping on the Vista wagon. And I won't even mention the software issues...sigh. Jon Raymond St Paul Park, MN Web site:
