Dan Rugman -----Original Message----- From: sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peter Bosher Sent: 10 December 2010 16:01 To: sib-access@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [sib-access] Sib Access under Windows 7 Hi All, Using Tim's solution I've had Sibelius Access running well on two Windows 7 systems, but on one particular laptop running Win 7 Pro 32-bit, Sib 5.25 just won't run, despite the XP compatibility setting. It sticks at a screen which says "Initialising Playback system", and when you then try to shut down, you get an application error from Sibelius.exe saying it can't read an instruction at memory address xxx Any suggestions as to other things to try please?
