Title: Jukebox Software that works on Vista.....
Post by: Ghoward on March 01, 2007, 07:48:09 pm
I am upgrading my pc's to Vista but SK jukebox doesn't seem to run in Vista, or maybe it is just me.

Does anyone who if any Jukebox software works with vista or should I just keep the Jukebox in XP...

A general rule of thumb would be to install and run it in compatibility mode.

That way if it worked in XP, it'll work in Vista....well theoretically.

I've had very little trouble getting apps to run in Vista when I use compatibility mode, but I'll be honest and say I haven't even considered upgrading my arcade or juke to Vista. 

No reason if you ask me. :dunno

I havent tested all software out here to vista.

I have to say Arcade Music Box even diddent work very well on Vista RC1 (wic. It could run, but the background picture flicked insanely :-(. My next app does without problems (developed in Vista RC1)

Freebox works fine here, apart a very very little comic skin bug when moving cursor up/down in the navigation menu to the left (few colored pixels can show in the corner, where they should not). But it so little, as you may not even not notice that in normal use.

I do not have tested SK jukebox, what it happens here. You do have the newest version? Otherwice try compatible mode as NinjaEpisode said.

SK doesn't work in compatibility mode it seems that something fails to install.

I'm not in a rush anyway to upgrade the Jukebox to Vista, I just thought I would start testing some of its apps on my laptop first to see what works and what doesn't.
