What is the solution to get creator 7.5 to work in XP mode in windows 7 pro> The error I get "The Display settings have changed in such that they do not meet theminimum requirements for this application. Please change the screen resolution to 1024 x 768 pixels or more and the color quality to 16-bit or higher" and I see no way to change resolution in xp mode it seems to be set at 800x600.

You'll probably have to enable the Integration Features for XP Mode first, and then you should be able to adjust the screen resolution. You will also probably have to run it in Full Screen mode in order to get to at least 1024x768.

Even with all that, it may not work correctly. Especially the video related parts of the suite.

I went to full screen mode which got me 1360x766 which still didnt work since 1024x768 is needed.... I have a hp dv6-1030us computer and upgraded to windows 7 pro expecting to be able to use creator 7.5 in xp pro mode. Creator 7.5 doesn't even start. I get this error "The Display settings have changed in such that they do not meet theminimum requirements for this application. Please change the screen resolution to 1024 x 768 pixels or moreand the color quality to 16-bit or higher"

It won't work - even Creator 2009 won't operate in Windows 7. Sorry, but that's how it is
