Hi,

I saw somewhere, probably here, that PSP-9 doesn't work under
Windows 7. Is that true? And is there a workaround if so?

Thanks,
Gary

Depends on your interpretation of does not work. It Does or will but as with Vista it will not have the newer eye candy and will revert to classic view until you close PSP 9 then the fancy graphics display will return

Works fine for me, but if it didn't, Windows 7 has a much better XP
compatibility mode (effectively a copy of XP within 7) that will run pretty
much anything.

Check the system requirements, though. Windows XP Mode works only with
Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate, and requires a CPU with
Hardware Virtualization Technology (not even all new CPUs have this).

There is also a utility available thru PCWorld's website or
Microsoft's website. It will install on your system and run
a check to determine if you have any incompatibility issues
with your CPU, drivers, memory, or installed apps. The process
takes aboutr 3-4 mins. to run and provides a readable printout
of any issues it detects and what you need to do to correct
them. I tried it today on my 3-year old Gateway desktop running
XP's Service Pack 2 and had no system compatibilities. It found
two apps that would need to be reinstalled to work with Win 7
and PSP 9.01 (which I use) was not one of them. PCWorld does
respond that in order to run the XP mode, a user must upgrade to
the Professional or Ultimate edition. The lower modes do not
have it. They also report that the minimum reqs for the new Windows
are:
1 ghz or faster 32-bit or 64-bit processor
1 gb of RAM (32-bit) or 2 gb RAM (64-bit)
16 gb free hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 gb (64-bit)
DirectX 9 graphics processor with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

Higher amounts would be better, of course.
