windows 7 won't run printmaster 7.0 deluxe

I have a problem with software companies that sell you an expensive product such as my printmaster 7.0 & has no fix for it to be able to run on windows 7 or so they tell me. They want me to buy another $200.00 program that will probably be junk in a year. My computer is a HP TouchSmart 600 Quad series with 2TB 7200 rpm SATA 3b/s hard drive. It has windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Does anyone know any way to get my computer to run the printmaster program? I know that you can get what they call a virtual Xp for most windows 7 programs but not the Home Premium 64 bit. Any suggestions out there?

 

Maybe you can find a program here that will help.

Have you tried running it in compatibility mode?

 

Hey thanks loads I will look at the site & see if I can use anything. thanks again

 

Yes I know that but I did pay a lot of money for the one I have. The new program will not run what I have on the old program.They have offered it to me for $10.00 less & I did purchase it. But thanks so much for your reply

 

I did try & it wants me to download a vertual windows xp which is not available for my windows .

 

According to Microsofts website they have it available for Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.Check out this link and see if it is what you need.

Here again it says it is not available for my windows. the following is what it says.

You are not eligible to download Windows XP Mode. You must have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate to run Windows XP Mode. To upgrade visit Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade.

The upgrade cost is the price of a new windows program professional or ultimate.. Thanks so much for your help. If you get any more info please let me know
