VS X4 installation problem with Win 7

[surfman49]

I bought a new computer (Dell E5520 laptop with Windows 7) and transfered all my programs/data; Video Studio ProX4 wouldn't work - would not capture video. I un-installed the program. When I try to install VS ProX4 on my new computer from the disc I get a small blank window and a flashing diaglogue box pops up so quickly I can't read it. I have run virus scans and removed all identified threats. I am running a Intel Core i5, have 4GB Ram and 500GB disk. Installation and operations were great on my old system running XP. Any ideas?

My computer has a similar spec to yours (see side panel) and I am running VSx5 without problem. How are you capturing the Video? Firewire or the USB/SD card route.
My dealer had a problem of getting the computer to see Firewire (in my case the IEEE1394 ports were added via a card) and it was a matter of getting the right drivers installed. I now have both a HDV camera and a newer SD card based HD camera, both capture systems work OK.

Here's what you can do
First let's make sure that all files of the old installation is removed including the registry - http://corel.force.com/index/articles/e ... dio-Pro-X4

then install the program using a new windows user profile with admin rights, here's the steps on how to create a new Windows user profile - http://corel.force.com/index/articles/e ... er-profile

Then just login to that new user and install VS X4. Since it's an Admin the program should be available when you switch to your regular user name.
