XP has the program comparability facility to enable software for older system to run.

I am trying to ger a program 'Live Suit' to run to enable a failed Android device to reload.

The instructions state it needs to be run under XP.

It certainly does NOT run in Vista

So I am hunting around for the comparability facility

Have not yet found such

Does Vista have it?

I am usig an HP destop and it could be HP have messed with the appearance of Vista

Worked the link FB it came up OK - nice graphic- but sill unable to locate the file it said to go for.

Moreover Win Vista Help- was no help at all.

A long typed conversation with a young lady simply went round in circles.

The site looked 'commercial' too with a complimentary question- anticipating payment for the next one.
