It seems my Vue 2 doesnt work with windows XP home edition every time I try to create a new file and then select my sky the program shuts down and its the same with opening a file I have tried XP's compatibility wizard and nothing is different.

Well, I don't have either Vue 2, or XP, so I couldn't really say one way or the other if it's supposed to be able to work or not.

Vue 3.1 was the first version written to work with Win 2K; I would assume that since XP is related to W2K, then 3.1 is the lowest version you'd be able to use with XP as well. Might be time to upgrade. :)

I saw that there was a compatibility mode in WXP wich permit to use 'old' games and apps. You could try to search about that...

I got XP Home and my Vue 3.1 wouldn't work in it at all, compatibility mode or not. I never did get it to work, so I just upgraded to Vue 4 ;). But I'm thinking that if Vue 3.1 wouldn't work, than Vue 2 probably wouldn't either. Laurie

Thanks everyone I emailed e-on and they confirmed it VUE 2.1 doesnt work with Windows XP it looks like I'm going to have to upgrade to Vue 4.

I think you'll be glad you did. Version 2 was rather basic, and there are several new features with v.3 and 4. :)
