Guest nchto Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 That version of Switch should work fine with Vista. Let us know if you have any issues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 That version of Switch should work fine with Vista. Let us know if you have any issues! It won't work ..... so yep I have issues :-) It installed & registered s/Ware OK ..... but when you try to load a file for conversion a pop up window appears advising that you have to have Real Player installed. I can't do that as RealPlayer does not exist for VISTA Ultimate. I have contacted Real Player support - and they confirm that at present no RealPlayer exists for Vista Ultimate platform. Is there a way around this - any other player than can be used ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nchto Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Have you actually tried installing Real Player on Vista? I did a quick google and some people are reporting success. If you are still having issues you might have some luck with Real Alternative: www.codecguide.com/about_real.htm. I haven't personally tested any of these methods so no guarantees.

I can't download it .. you can't download a file ... what you download is their 'download Manger' ... this opens but does not load anything ... Real Player advise it will not download a the player as it has detected the Vista Ultimate OS which is not supported. NCH ... what about supporting Switch on Windows Media Player - ver11 comes with the OS ??? I'm stuffed at the moment .. have a licensed ver of Switch and can't use it ...
