    Canon Console software is designed to run ONLY on Windows XP operating system.

    I’ve been testing the demo version of Console 1.1 on my PC running Vista SP1. Couple of things must be done before it will work.

    1) Right click on the “CONSOLE11N.EXE” file
    2) Select “Properties”
    3) Select the “Compaltibility” tab
    4) In the “Compaltibility Mode” section click the check box “Run this program in compaltibility mode for”
    5) Select “Windows XP (Service Pack 2)
    6) Press OK

    Now install the software

    In the “Program Files/Canon/CONSOLE1.1” directory locate the file named “Console.exe”

    Repeat steps 1 – 5 then run Console

    Console now thinks it’s running on an XP PC
