1230888 2011-09-14 04:21:00 Nothings perfect - I like my nice new computer and windows7 but have found that it will not run ACDSee3.1
And that is BAD.
I have later versions of ACDSee that work OK but 3.1 is the one that handles captions so well and is
the one I much prefer.

When I try to run ACDSee3.1 absolutely nothing happens.
Any ideas?

1230889 2011-09-14 04:25:00 Wrong forum
but have you tried right clicking and run as administrator?

1230890 2011-09-14 04:29:00 Ask on the ACDSee site. Or send them an email Speedy Gonzales (78)
1230891 2011-09-14 05:51:00 Yes I have sent ACDSee an email and it will probably take them a few days to reply.
But a strange facet!
I bought myself one of those cheap small notebooks recently - it also runs win7 but a very basic edition.
Checking it a few minutes ago I found ACDSee v3.1 that I put on it and had absolutely no problems.
So Win7 must be able to run the thing.
Which means I am doing something wrong.
What?
Tom
PS I'll stay on this forum for now.

Yep I realised that but still OK

1230894 2011-09-14 09:51:00 Well it looks as though we have arrived.
ACDSee3.1 is running.
Dunno how I did it but I did try reinstalling it - made some changes to what I did before - and also was on
the look out for being treated as an administrator, which I spotted and activated.
OK I don't really know what I did that cured the problem but I feel chuffed with myself.
Thanks for those who helped me.
