Vista & MS-Calculator Plus 1.0

Hi,
I have been using MS-Calculator Plus for a long time with Win XP already : a
wonderfull thing.
Now that I have moved to Vista, I have a problem with it : it starts up sooo
sloowly.
It was lightning fast on XP, now it takes ages to show up when I start it in
Vista.

Any solutions to that please ?

Regards
Geo

Have you contacted the Developer about support for Windows Vista? Sounds
like a compatibility issue.

Have you tried Compatibility Mode?

ss.

Hi Andre,

The developer is Microsoft.
Have you ever managed to get an answer directly from them ?
I didn't, that is why I try to find solutions in forums like this one :-))

Yes I did ss, it did not change a thing.
It just take a light-year to strart (or at least to show on the screen).

If I remember correctly, this is one of the programs that the Vista Upgrade Advisor
flagged as being incompatible with Vista.

That might explain this strange behavior Call.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Cal,

I have downloaded and installed the Vista Upgrade Advisor.
Guess what - it does not find anything on my puter that is incompatible with
Vista.
