I got it to work perfectly which i thought would be impossible!!! I do not
remember all I had to do and the computer was returned so I removed it.
Ordering a new puter tomorrow Vista Home Prem 64 bit and will get it going
again and pay more attention as to what I did. Glad I did not give up and
upgrade to QB2009 cause I only use 2005 for checking accounts. Dont give up
and sorry if this is common knowledge.

Why 64 bit? I'd think you'd run into too many programs that won't work with
64 bit Vista. I'd stick with 32 bit for fewer headaches.

Quick Books and Works are the omly programs I use. The new Comps come with
Works free so all I needed was to get QB2005 working. I dont have a reason
for 64 bit except that whats on the computer I an going to get.

Yes Sir, its me!!! QB for checking and Works spreadsheets for a few other
things. I use QB because when I was in business it was the best. I like
that I can look back a few years and see what I paid and to whom. Thats why
I was happy to get it to work on Vista 64 bit. Did not wish to upgrade to
2009 just for checking.
