DW and Vista

Linton · 03-05-07, 06:32 PM

Has anybody tried running dw with vista?What about SCX or the NCP?

IIRC., from the 'official' boards - 32-bit Vista? Yes. 64-bit *anything*? No. Note that Vista is unusual in that it's the first Microsoft OS that (in nearly all editions) comes with both the 32-bit and 64-bit DVD in the box. Make sure you pick the right one!

(IIRC., the most entry-level offering does not have the 64-bit option, though.)

You could try installing/running it in 32 bit compatability mode if you have 64 bit Vista

I can confirm, that DW runs in 64-bit Vista without problems

And I can comfirm that DW runs on Vista 32bit.
Only problem is with the options screen that vista keeps switching to the ms speech recognition setup.

But the speech recognition works? Did you install the additional ms software from the DW CD#1?

On my system the speech recognition of DW does not understand me

On Windows XP it has worked. Perhaps the problem is that my default language is German?:hmm:
