Hi There,

I recently backed up all my pictures from an old computer running ME ( yeah I know..it was an old computer, but worked great) onto a CD and I when I load the CD onto my laptop with XP OS, pictures pull up just fine. I take the same CD and pop it into my new computer with Vista and it doesnt recognize I even have the CD in? Does anyone know why I can view the CD with XP, but not Vista? I am so frustrated with Vista in so many ways I can't even explain! Thanks in advance.

( I know it doesn't say it's for Vista but I've
seen reports that it works...Good Luck and
let us know how it goes)
