I tried installing this music program for my verizon phone and I got this error message. I use and love vista, so I'm not bashing it. I just thought that the error message was funny. But yeah, didn't get the program to work and verizon hasn't made an update for it. Good thing i still have my XP latop though.

XD

Meh, it seems fine to me. Most the people i know use verizon so i got a plan that makes it free for me to call and text any of them. Only a few people i kno don't have it, but I get those extra minutes to cover that and I've never gone over the limit. =P

Few things I want to say:

Can't you shrink the icons using this method: Right-click Desktop> Properties> Settings. Locate Screen Resolution and move the slider until it is at the maximum resolution, which is: 1440 by 900 pixels.

Also, what is Switch and Sound Catcher and waht Verizon software is that? AND is it free?

The fact that the OS forced you to actually go back in time is amusing to me. That really sucks. Yet another reason for me to say that Vista sucks. Oh well, it;s not like I am collecting them together or anything.

I could, but blown up icons like that really don't bother me.

Also, what is Switch and Sound Catcher and waht Verizon software is that? AND is it free?

Switch is a sound converting program. But i recently got Audacity and that's workin fine. Only problem is that I have a problem recording stuff on vista with it. Oh wells.

Sound Catcher is a sound recording program that records wuts playing on your monitor. Yet another program that's denied access to my sound card and i need to wait for an update for that to work. I still have my XP laptop, so it won't be a problem for me.

And the verizon program is a thing where i plug my phone into the comptuer and it converts songs that I select into some format and places them on my phone. Kinda like an iPod on my phone. I'm considering getting a thing where I can just put MP3s on the SD card directly which will also allow me to listen to the music on my wii.

First of all, the OS didn't force me to go back in time, it's the verizon program that did that. It was made before vista was released so the program doesnt even know how to be compatable with the OS. And vista doesnt suck thank you very much. It's just that it's newer and a lot of things haven't upgraded to it's standards yet, and pacient people like me don't mind. =3

Mac is for fags, try running your program in Vista compatibility mode, that should declare it as the right operating system for that program to run in.

And Vista sucks. Windows 98 is the best version of Windows. Even though it doesn't support USB stuff... well, I've managed to get a USB drive to work on a Windows 98 computer, so I guess it does.

You just need to update your USB Drivers because Vista Sucks balls with the drivers.

Oh shit, though he meant Panther. Anyway that hasn't been released yet so you can't say that.

What version did you get? I got the premium version so that I wouldn't have to worry about all the problems the basic version had. (It's known as XP with all the problems)

It most likely converts the file to .3gp format. Is it free though? I have one of those types of programs, but it just came out so there are probably better ones out there. I guess I could always torrent it though.. : )
