I get this error when I'm trying to install this one app. Anything I can do to fix it?

    It means that vista can't run that app. You could try running it in compatibility mode, that may work. But otherwise you are basically done.

    or buy a new version of the app, IE if your trying to install Office 98 onto Vista, you may want to get 07.

    I'll 2nd that. OpenOffice (at least the newest versions and there's no reason not to run the newest versions) works perfectly.

    Speaking of OpenOffice wait until September (tentative) the next real release is due out and it's going to be a significant upgrade. Biggest feature will be it can edit PDF's.

    Why wait? Even without PDF editing it's still great software.

    Sure!

    That's really great to hear that OpenOffice will edit PDF's in the new version!!!!!
    Because that's the one thing all the free PDF document viewing and printing programs won't do.
    Where did you hear about this kryyst?
