Hope this helps. I can look for more issues if this doesn't solve your problem.

I think that program requires a pretty stout computer. Does that older computer meet the minimum requirement's?

That is because you need a 64 bit version ..

Previous versions of Roxio or Sonic branded software that are not listed below as Vista compatible may run into compatibility issues. The following Roxio applications that work with Windows Vista are:

Easy Media Creator 9 and above
WinOnCD 9 and above
Easy CD & DVD Burning ("Vista Compatible" labeled boxes only) 
RecordNow 9 and above
MyDVD 9 and above

You will have to upgrade the software to an vista compatible version:

There is a patch from Roxio to resolve this error!

What have you tried to install the software. I have found that many software CD's or DVD's need to simply be opened by right-clicking on the drive's icon and selecting the 'Explore' option. When the disc icons are shown, select the Setup.exe or Autorun.exe and the software will install. If after installing the software doesn't run, try running it in compatibillity mode for Windows XP.

Easy Media Creator 7 is not supported on Vista. Easy Media Creator 9 and above are only supported. Anything lower may be able to go onto Vista, but Tech Support is not going to be able to assist you if you have problems.

u should download version which is suitable for vista
