Well, V6E  will open and then either hang or want to put me into the compatible mode. I say no and shut it down. I have all the updates - have not run the newest one yet (.10).

Could it be my video card?  It's 31/2 years old.  nVidia - updated last year.

Works fine on Vue4 Vue5 and P4/P6. The only problem is Vue6Esprite. It's such a waste of money.  V6 PLE had no problems - but I wanted to install V6 and start learning it. 
Plus I have the ecosystem installed and haven't even used it yet...

Guess it's back to Vue 4  - at least that's working perfectly.

I doubt i'll ever purchase another Vue product again.

GRRRRRRRRR
