Using Protools 7.0 with Vista
I currently have Protools 7.0 on Windows XP. I want to buy a laptop that has Vista. I need to get things straight. I see on the Digidesign website that only Protools 7.4 can run on Vista. The sales guy (who also sold Protools 7.4) told me I don't need to upgrade and that somewhere on the Digi site there were instructions on how to load 7.0 with Vista. Is this possible? Or do I really need to upgrade to 7.4 to work with Vista?

Re: Using Protools 7.0 with Vista
Stop dealing with that salesperson IMMEDIATELY! They don't have a clue. Only 7.4 and above will work with Vista.
Cheers,

Re: Using Protools 7.0 with Vista
Ditto: I would question (no...doubt) anything that salesperson tells you. It is better to honestly say "I don't know, but let me find out" than to flat out say something wrong to customers. I would tell the store manager t too (not to get the dude fired) but to make sure that such errors are not being spread. Only PT 7.4 and above will work with Vista 32-bit (no version of Protools currently works with Vista 64-bit).
