SLSHas anyone else had a problem with this? I have checked with INtuit and
their suggestions were absolutely no help.

I had to install Quicken 2007 in Windows XP compatibility mode. But it
is working fine under Vista.

Right-click the setup file, select properties then compatibility.

The only problem I had with the installation was trying to immediately "open
an existing data file." I had to allow Quicken to start the wizard process
of creating a new file, close it and then open my existing data file. Other
than that, no issue in Quicken 2007 with Vista.

I have to agree, Intuit is of very little help.

I've installed Quicken 2007 on Vista Ultimate 64bit and it gave me no
problem at all. Did you try removing it completely and then installing
with UAC turned off? That's how I did it but that may or may not work
for you.

BTW, what are you using for a mouse? I found Logitech's SetPoint
conflicts with Quicken Billminder, just a heads up in case you get
Quicken installed and have a Billminder problem. My fix was to change
mice and use MSFT's Intellipoint.

Just to let people know, this also works (letting it setup a new account)
with getting older versions to work as well. Mine was 2003.
