I installed Quicken 2006 H&B Premier on a Vista Ultimate x64 machine
without any apparent problem and even downloaded its updates. But when
I try to run it, it asks if I want to use an existing file--I check
yes--then it crashes and generates an error report to send to MS.

Googling for this doesn't reveal anybody else having this significant
a problem with Quicken and x64 Vista but I wonder if this group can
offer a solution.

Hey, it worked after a reboot. What a surprise!

Hi, Bob.

Congratulations!

I had to (re)install Quicken many times, especially during the Vista beta.
The first several times resulted in various hassles, but I gradually got
pretty good at it.

One trick is to bail out of Quicken Setup just before the finish. When it
offers to Start Quicken Now, just say No. Then browse to your *.qdf file
and click on it. That should start Quicken with your data file loaded,
which establishes that file as the default. Thereafter, simply clicking the
Quicken icon should load it with that data file.
