Does anyone here know if PSP7 or PSP9 work on a Vista 64 Bit computer?

OMG Urlee,
You are not thinking of giving up version 7 are you..??
Of course I don't have an answer to your vista question as I am still using ( and hope to continue to us) XP.....
It seems that so many things are either not compatable with vista or have special direction for Vista...
Why do they have to keep making new stuff when the old stuff works just fine??

Hi Elly,

I have been searching and wanting a laptop for at least 2 years now so I can participate more on these forums etc. and making "goodies" with my software programs where sitting at a desktop gets pretty tiring at "my old age" (smiles) Not a teenager anymore.
I FINALLY found a laptop to my liking and $$ but it is a 64 Bit machine and I certainly would not want it if I could not use Jasc PSP's on it.

Can't contact Jasc as they are no longer.
Hopefully I will find out so I can get down to business here.

where is my thread? (help with PSP & Animation Shop)

amy, There are good points to both. (9&X) In X, I liked the fact that you could see each image in the layer palette without having to run your mouse over. I haven't used them (9&X) long enough to see but a lot of folks swear by 9 and I sure was lucky to get a PSP9 as I bet it was one of the last ones sold. Started to use X when I first bought it. Then I ran into a snag which my dear friend JOY gave me a solution to where when e-mailing our "dear" Coral, they gave me the run around and couldn't tell me what Joy did which was such a simple thing. I let them know too. But like I say, what I do do in PSP, PSP7 does it just fine as I only have been resizing, touchups, multiple printing, and copy/paste to MSWord from there what I want to insert. I can't remember which one stopped having Animation shop but as long as you have it now, or a disk with it, you are OK as Animation Shop is a program of it's own that works with 7, 8, 9, & X.

Hi Jen, I have 7,8,9,X, & XII. I absolutely hated 8 and uninstalled it as soon as 9 came out. Can't say I gave 9 a lot of time as by the time I got it X was available. I really liked X but always looking for something better I decided to upgrade to XII. Love it!!! I like the dark color of the workspace better than the others. I checked and all versions after 7 have the feature you are looking for with the different size image templates, new image, presets. Urlee is right about the time it takes to load the later versions, PSP 7 is really quick in comparison. Here is what XII workspace looks like. [ Carol

OK....I just checked this out one more time....DUH..... I opened Windows Explorer, went to the PSP plugin folder, Visman...the only file in Visman that starts with a 'Z' says, Zoom. I then opened PSP and checked the Plugin list....the last one in the list says Zoom Blur. I must have been looking in in Windows explorer when I said mine was only called Zoom. Not sure how/why it's called Zoom in one place and Zoom Blur in another place..... Sorry, for the confusion. Joy

Note: There is a PSPX Update on the Corel site, for those that already have PSPX. Update Carol, I don't know how much help I will be. Each of us uses PSP for different types of projects and that makes a difference in our needs. It doesn't have Animation 3 with it. You have to have a previous version or (I guess) buy Animation separate. My first PSP was 7. When 8 came out, I updated to 8. When 9 came out, I updated to 9. Now, I have PSPX. As I updated, I never went back, each new version had additional new effects and/or tools. So far I like PSPX, I haven't had any trouble with it. I have all three versions on my puter and they live happily together. The only reason I keep all of then is, if I'm helping some one, I need them to remember where things are in each version. The first thing I do when I install a new version is, take the time to customize the new version. I put the tools and Icons in the same place as the previous version so that I don't have to hunt, it takes time but it's worth the extra time. I just finished doing that with PSPX, every thing is in the same place as PSP9. Other than the new effects, I can't even tell the difference between 9 and X. After I customize, I save the the new workspace and name it custom1. When I do have a problem all I have to do is go to File/Workspace and reload and it corrects the problem. As time goes by there will be less tutorials and certainly no updates for the previous versions, especially PSP7. The bottom line is, I'm happy with PSPX. It has some new features, and it loads faster than the previous versions. Hope this helps... Joy

I have Vista on a laptop with PSP 9 and 10 loaded on it. I don't think V7 is very compatable. Most of my work is done on V9 as it loads faster and works well with other versions of PSP.

Is it 64 Bit??????
That's what I am concerned about.

I use PSP7 mostly cause it loads faster than 9 but would switch to 9 if it works and better with Vista 64 Bit,.

Yes Sugar,
I have PSP7 and PSP9 on my win7 64 Bit laptop and they work fine for me but as I said, I have a hard time changing from PSP7 to the better PSP9 cause I am so used to everything on PSP7.

Hi,
I am not sure if I know what I am talking about here, but I am wondering if any of these problems have anything to do with Windows 7. I know it does not support 8bf files, and so many of the plug ins (especially the older ones) we use, have them as a basis.....
I know this is not exactly germane to the subject matter here, but I am wondering if anyone here is using 7, and finding it does not support a lot of stuff (including even some printers)??
