Unable to run installation j edit software on windows Vista

Asked By Anthony E Cisneros 20 points N/A Posted on - 09/10/2012

Hi,

I upgraded my operating system to windows Vista a few years ago. However, I still haven’t been able to find a way to run the installation j edit software on it. A message prompt pops up with a Virtual Device Driver Error. I have attached a picture of the error message.

16 bit Windows Subsystem

SYSTEMCurrentControlSetVirtualDeviceDrivers. VDD. Virtual Device

Driver format in the registry is invalid. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

 

                                                                                                   Close

I miss using my j edit software! I would really appreciate any tips on this issue.

Thanks beforehand.

Hello.

The j edit software which you are using is compatible with Windows XP but not with windows vista.

Try to download the latest version of the software which is compatible with windows vista.

Click on the below link to download the latest version.

Or else try the java bases installer click on the below link to download java based j edit software. This is for all operating systems.

Thank you.

Hi Anthony,

This specific error is caused by a conflict with the current platform and the program.

This usually happens if you have installed a 16 bit Operating System, if you really want to use you J Edit you might want to redo the installation and make sure you choose 32 bit or 64 bit system type for your Operating System.

This behavior also shows when the registry is corrupted, I know that this is a clean install and hoping you did not choose to upgrade. Since if the upgrade is chosen it only opens issues regarding compatibility.

Here is a link you can check to see on how to repair your Registry as this needs full details.
