Sony Vegas version...?

Post by Shadow_Leaper » Sun Jun 21, 2009 4:00 pm

Ok, so I just moved in with my sister and she has an older computer, which will NOT run my version of Sony Vegas Pro 8 for whatever reason- it's just not happening.

So I looked up some stuff and found out that even to run the 7.0 version I need something called "Microsoft Framework" and a "C++" (I cant remember exactly.) But I downloaded them both from the Microsoft website and neither of them would install.

So, before I go out and buy a brand new copy of Vegas, I need to know which version will even run on this computer.

Microsoft Windows XP
Home Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 3

HP
Pavilion Intel[R]
Pentium[R] 4 CPU 3.00GHz
3.00 GHz, 504 MB of RAM
Yes, I'm VERY aware that it sucks, but its all Ive got. An NO getting another version Windows is not an option. ^_^

Download the trials for Vegas 6 and 9, but you should probably get both Microsoft Framework and C++ as a lot of programs require them.

I did download them as I said above, they will not install. Or do not install properly, is the only message I get. Doesnt tell me why, they just wont.

You've already stated that you attempted to download the Microsoft Framework but it could have probably been a version that your PC might've already had.

You're particularly looking for Microsoft's .NET Framework: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en

That one should work without flaw, though considering your PC, it may make a few things a bit slower but Vegas should work for you at that moment.

Hopefully that solves your problem, good luck!
