WE CANNOT RECOMMEND MS VISTA OPERATING SYSTEMS AT THIS TIME!!!!!!!!
       With more and more computers coming loaded with Microsoft Vista Operating Systems, we would like to update you on the compatability of PawnMaster with these Windows versions.  The Home versions of Vista have many of the same problems that we have encountered with XP home.  These issues involve loss of connections with SQL databases which PawnMaster needs to operate correctly.  The business versions of Vista are currently being tested and the main concerns are the lack of compatible drivers from the printer manufacturers. (HP,Okidata etc.)  We will continue to research and visit these manufacturers websites for current Vista drivers so that we may move forward with Microsoft's newest Operating Systems.  There is also a large learning curve on the Vista operating systems for general operations such as installing software and networking.  Until we have further information we cannot recommend using our software on Microsoft's Vista products.
