Vista - Appcrash problem with Harvard Graphics program

I am trying to run Harvard Graphics Advanced Presentations 3 and get an
appcrash error (see below) when I try to run it. HG is kind of passing the
buck on this one, so I was wondering if anyone has any suggestionson how to
fix. I'd be so grateful!

Have you tried compatibility mode with say XP. Right click on the .exe and
select properties, then compatibility and try any you think this program
would run with.

Hi Heather,

Two things to try before returning the software:

1) Right click the shortcut or executable and try 'run as administrator'.

2) Right click the shortcut or executable and choose properties. On the
compatibility tab try using a mode that the software is compatible with.

Heather (and Rick), any luck running HG AP 3 under Vista? I tried the compatibility workarounds, to no avail. The program starts, but closes or crashes when I bring up the file menu. I think I tried all the other Windows OS options, all with run as administrator. No luck so far. Any thoughts appreciated. I haven't found a reasonably priced graphics program that can do what HG does fairly simply. And it is like riding a bicycle . . . I've gotten used to it, and don't want to try to learn something else. --CohoMike
