Print Master Gold 16 compatible with Windows 7?

It seems that Broderbund Print Shop 20 Deluxe for PC is for Windows 98 / 2000 / Me / XP.

What you can try:

1. De-install Print Shop
2. Re-install Print Shop in the Windows XP Compatibility mode.

All you need to do is download & install Windows XP Mode for Windows 7

Once installed you will be able to run all your favorite old programs , if you run into any compatibility issues , right click on the .exe file & select "properties" , compatibility mode , & select the settings your program is known to work with .

After all this if you still can't run the program , try using " virtualbox " or " vmware virtual machine " & install a copy of windows xp as a virtual machine .

Broderbund PrintMaster Platinum 16 is not compatible with Win7(x86 or x64 bit)
Check -> Windows 7 Compatibility Center

You have to upgrade to a new version 18 to run on Win 7.

Printmaster Platinum 16 is not compatible with Vista or Windows 7.
Presently there are not "patches" to make it works.

Your options is to use the newer version eg. version 18.1

Hope it helps.

Not compatible or not working well with windows 7?
(making a program work with windows 7)

Maybe, It doesn't work because the driver/application you installed is for other versions of operating system. I am also using windows 7 like you so don't you worry, You can still use your old installer/driver from other versions of operating systems. Just remember that before installing any program in a windows 7 Operating System Computer, Use "troubleshoot compatibility". Right Click the Icon of your program installer/application first, then choose "troubleshoot compatibility". This will allow you to choose on what type operating system your program will run. Just reply back if it still doesn't work.:D rate and vote for me:))

Try running it in compatibility mode.

As I just posted on http://www.fixya.com/support/t2129564-printmaster_platinum_10_version_will_not I was able to get PrintMaster Platinum 10 to install on Windows Vista by right clicking on E:Setupis_Setup.Exe->Properties->Compatibility->Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2) and then running E:Setup>is_Setup.Exe FullSetup.ini from the command prompt.
