It took a little research to find the answer to that question. Frankly, I was a little baffled when the download didn't work. Seems that V 11 will work with all versions of Windows XP dated 2005 or later, and having SP2. I have XP Media addition, but it's dated 2002. I'm not sure how I got here........this computer isn't that old!! Bottom line, I can't install V 11 on this computer..........at least *I* don't know how to do it.
