I just installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit, and I can't get any program to
install. I've downloaded the Vista 64-bit versions of the following programs:

Firefox
Adobe Reader

When I try to install these programs, I get APPCRASH.exe errors. Can
someone help?

Quad Core 6600, 8800 GT, Vista Ultimate 64-bit, 2 GB RAM

Thanks.

Hi,
Strange, as there's no such thing as Adobe Reader for Vista 64-bit.
It is only 32-bit.
If you are having problems installing Adobe Reader then give Foxit Reader
2.2 a try.
Go to www.foxitsoftware.com and download the freeware reader.
It is lighter and faster than Adobe.

I can't tell you anything about Firefox because I use IE7.

The only thing I've been able to install is Adobe flash. Does anyone else
have ideas?

You must have to get 64bit print drivers for the 64bit spooler.

Where you attempting to load some print drivers or is this in conjunction
with the 32bit applications whose 32bit drivers will not function for x64
platform?

I have a Canon Pixma 780MP. It's a multifunction printer. I downloaded the
Vista 64-bit drivers from their website. It's still not working.

Can't print? Setup fails? Any error message? If you can print, I'll defer
to anyone else for scanning issues.

It's not just the printer drivers. I can't run any executable in Vista
64-bit. I've even tried running in Administrator mode. I can run
installation drviers off a DVD ROM, but I can't run anything off a USB hard
drive or the HD itself.

It might help if you bothered to describe the symptoms, as has been
asked a couple of times. There's no detail in what you've posted to give
anyone a clue what your problem is. Is this a legit copy of Vista you
are running, and/or is it running in reduced functionality mode?
