Hi! I use Sibelius on windows 7 and many of list members do that. In order to make it work, You should run it in compatibility mode. Open properties of the sibelius's desktop icon, then go to the second tab, which is probably called "compatibility" or something like that, then check the checkbox "run in compatibility mode with" and in the next combo box choose "windows XP service pack 3". I am sorry if I spell names of the controls wrong, because I own russian Windows and don't know exact names of items. Regards, Dmitry. -----Исходное сообщение----- From: Haipeng Hu Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2013 3:10 PM To: sib-access Subject: [sib-access] Compatibility problem Hello, I just installed Windows 7 32 bit on my computer. But Sibelius 5 seems not running on this system. It opens but doesn't play the splash music and turns to the working area. Does this mean Sib5 can't work on Win7? Sibelius 6 can open correctly, so I hope a set of script of Sib6 can come out. Now I have to make a Ghost for this system and ghost back to XP to run Sib5!
