We are getting an error message for our Roxio 7.5 stating it is incompatible with our version of Windows (Vista)) but we have been using it up to now - does anyone know what has changed and is there anything we can do to remedy?

Many thanks

You have been lucky.  Most people couldn't use EMC 7.5 (or EMC 8) with Vista.  Roll back Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player to IE 6 and WMP to what every you had on your computer before. Updates to those break EMC 7/7.5/8.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.

Sounds like the OP is out of luck.  I misread the post; I thought that the Op was using XP.
