    When I try to install WinFAx 10 PRO with vista I get s warning that this program is incompatible with vista. How can I solve this and use winfax, as it is 100 times than the windows fax?

     

    I need urgently an answer!

     

    Thanks - Christos

    After weeks of investigation I threw the winfax in the bin and downloaded the free version of Active-Fax. Especially if you have ISDN modem, as I do, this software is far better.

    You can download it here http://www.actfax.com/en/download.html.

    The license for one user is free and the key to enter during installation is 10025-49480

    And the best of everything is that when you customize the software and you want to keep the settings in case you want to format your drive or install it on another computer, you copy all files of C:\Program Files\ActiveFax to the same location in your new computer and reinstall. All your settings and faxes are preserved.

     

    You owe me one, because it took me weeks of frustration till I find this software.

     

    Regards,

    Christos

    How do you install the xp on a vista programmed laptop? Do you have to uninstall the vista first?
