Hi, I hope some one can help me. I recently got a new coumputer, which has vista. I have installed my corel draw 12 graphics suite on it, but I am having problems. I get a message that "corel photo paint has stopped responding" and that it has stopped interacting with windows. Does it have to do with the fact that it may not be compatible with vista? and if so what do i do? is there a patch I can download?
I am happy to have found this site, and hope I can get some good information here.
thank you
Draw 12 is working fine on Vista for me as well....sofar

Hey everyone - I'm glad that I stumbled across this site. Definitely bookmarked for future reference!
I too am having some trouble with Vista. My new laptop came with Vista, so I'm kind of stuck with it. Corel 12 installs find and seems to run fine, however I run into trouble when trying to install SP1. The installation wizard halts and doesn't update the program, presumably when it discovers that you aren't running XP. Because it is a Windows .msp file, I can't find any options to run it in XP compatibility mode.
So my questions are:
1) For those of you running CGS12 on Vista, what was your method for upgrading to SP1?
2) Failing getting it patched to SP1, is there a way to disable the update notifications each time I start one of the applications? I am going to be using PhotoPain primarily, and based on the list of fixes in SP1, there are only a few minor issues in PhotoPaint that were fixed (most were in Draw).
Of course, the obvious answer would be to upgrade to X3, but I'm not a heavy user of the software and I haven't yet felt limited by version 12 (until my little Vista problem came along!), so I'd like to try and get the most out of 12 if I can. Thanks so much for any tips that you might have.
