Usiing QuarkXpress7 with Windows Vista

[cineramax]

HiI've seen a few posts about this but I either couldn't understand them or couldn't get them to work (i'm not that great with computers so probably my fault!)

 

Basically, i've been given a copy of QuarkXpress7 which I'm supposed to use to put together a local paper. The trouble is my laptop has windows vista so it keeps saying that it can't install the quark disc.

 

I read 7.3 is the first quark version that is compatible with vista, but I just wondered is there a simple way to get version 7 to work with vista ? (as i doubt they will purchase quark 7.3 especially)

 

I've tried using the compatibility wizard, which i read might work on one forum, but it still seemed to do nothing and the disc just wouldn't load. As i say i'm not that great with technical stuff so if there is an answer I could do with an easy step by step guide to what I could do.Thanks very much for any help :-)

I've looked around and not found much luck.

 

I'm going to link your other thread on the Quark forums, so other mods can check to see if anything has been posted on that side.

Give this thread a read, it may be of some use.

As long as once it is copied over it has been removed fully from the other system I don't see there being a problem.
