    Ok, first don't hit me with "My first issue was upgrading to Vista :)

    I upgraded to Vista Business- I went to run CATIHELP today and received this pop up.

    16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem


    CATIHELP.EXE

    This system does not support fullscreen mode. Chose ‘Close’ to terminate the application.

    I tried switching the settings and nothing happened. I tried compatability mode...that didn't work. Anyone have any ideas?

    Yes, I have tried that fix. It still won't launch. I can't seem to locate the site to see if they have an update to correct this. I guess I will have to contact our and I use the term loosely, Computer Tech and see if he has a contact for CATIHelp.

    If this is a true DOS application, you might want to try DOSBOX. I use it for my old MS-DOS games on Vista and it works well...
