Hi kate37

You should have no problem running them on Vista. They are designed for the Windows environment, regardless of which version you are running.

The only issue is with Apple Mac.

Depends if you have installed a 64 bit or 32 bit version of Vista.

For normal home use most people will have a 32 bit version of Vista installed but it is possible to install a 64 bit version. (I was given a free copy of Windows Vista Ultimate last week by Microsoft and if I install it I can choose either 32 or 64 bit versions)

Windows Vista x64 bit can run 32 bit applications (such as 11plus CD/Software) but there can be problems with the software drivers - Vista x64 bit does support x86 (32 bit) drivers, so if you did happen to have Vista x64 bit then you would need to check by trial and error (or by checking with the supplier) whether they support x64 bit drivers in their software.

I doubt if this will be a problem for you.

We have had customers using it in Vista. Please feel free to try. If there are any problems we will try to fix it or do a full refund.
