MarioD Veteran Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 21,046 Hamlin NY	FWIW - I have an old Win 95 photographic program that I use on occasion as it works for what I want without going through a ton of options. The only way that I could get it to work in Win 10 was to right click on the exe file, run as administrator then install it using the compatibility setting. You might want to try this, hopefully it will install. PS - before you start on me, :-}, I know that there have been audio changes in some windows upgrades so the above method may not work. But I think it is worth a try. My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not. 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Matt: Sorry, I have no idea about how to use the Win 7 compatibility setting. Mario: As per my reply to Matt, you can see that I'm not that "computer savvy", however, I have a son-in-law who is. I'll see if we can try your suggestion. Thanks again everyone! LLOYD S
