    Vista and Windows 7 both have a compatability mode, that creates an XP like environment for a particular program. So any XP program should be able to run safely. in either.

    It's just one of those unfortunate things in life. I use a number of CNC programs which all work OK with XP but they don't all work with Vista.
    I have tried various fudges, updates and registry fixes and wasted many hours of my time now I tell myself "To solve the problems with Vista use XP" this solution works perfectly, every time, for me.

    CNC is only limited by our imagination.

    These compatibility modes often work with the software/application but not necessarily for the drivers. Do not EXPECT it to work with Vista/7 unless the vendor has tested it.
