Suea Peek Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi, I'm new here, and I kind of need some help...Anyways, I had Visual Basic 6.0 on my computer (I have Windows Vista) for a while, and it worked completely fine. Then one day my hard drive died and I had to replace it. I tried to install VB again, but I just get a window saying the program is blocked due to compatibility issues. What I don't understand why can't I install this now when I had before? Also, using the new Visual Studio isn't really a solution for me since it can't open my old programs that I really need to use. Any help is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makcalable Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Ummm maybe a daft question here but had you reinstalled windows vista and if so have you download and installed all necessary windows updates including .net framework updates? Did you format the new hard drive before use? since it can't open my old programs that I really need to use. I not understanding what you have actually done since the old hard drive died, need to know all you done prior to the hard drive failure....

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Can you give the full message that you are getting, or a screenshot of it? Also, I don't understand why you cannot open "old programs" (old projects?) with newer versions of Visual Studio; they are usually backwards compatible.
