Quote - ...does it overwrite Poser 6? Or does it install as a seperate entity?

And.... Poser 7 on a windows vista computer seems to have problems installing anything from a zip file, but exe's are fine.... is this a vista thing??? It's very annoying having to place everything by hand on a friends computer....

Argh....

 

My Desktop system is WinXP Pro, love it.

Not by choice, My LapTop has Vista Home Premium.
I first loaded Poser 7 outside of the Program Folder File. It ran OK.
I later loaded Poser 7 in the Program Folder. It runs OK.

I did have trouble with Vista wanting to run my P7 CD by Auto.
I ended up Right clicking the exe file and installing P7.

I generally find all the Security with a Vista  a pain in the ar$e.
Zips expand, but tend to create a subfolder in the folder I want them expanded to.
exe's I Right click and "Run as Admin.

You may find things a little easier by Disabling UserAccountControl

At times, Vista will not allow me to rename a folder. I am the Admin and the only user on the system.
