Live 5 and Vista?

Post by sluggo » Tue Feb 03, 2009 7:57 pm

Hi, I haven't used Live for a while and finally installed it on my new PC that is running Vista 32-bit. The gui seems quite sluggish and I think the audio was crackling a bit (although I didn't investigate too far yet on this). I've been using Samplitude quite well on this system so I know that it is capable of working okay. I'm just trying to remember if Live 5 was identified as not being Vista friendly - my foggy memory tells me this was the case but I'm not all that sure. Certainly there seem to be some gui issues.

thanks

Hi sluggo,

Vista support was introduced later, with Live 6.0.8. Live 5.0 is not compatible with Vista.
Best,
