Subject:Vista 64bit & Sound Forge 8.0d Posted by: Love Buzz Date:6/1/2008 3:46:37 PM Hello all. Just recently purchased a new machine and it has Vista 64bit on it. I have disabled DEP and also selected Run This Program in Compatibility Mode for XP SP2. However, I get a message that Sound Forge requires Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 and .NET Framework version 1.1 Service Pack 1. I tried to install 1.1, but got the message it could not. So I downloaded the 64bit .NET version (which I got the message that it was already installed.). Any ideas? I know that SF 9 runs in the Vista environment, but I would really like it if I didn't have to fork out $134 to do so. Thanks for your help.
