MS Dynamics SL won't run under Vista 64

Dynamics SL client ("Solomon"), according to MS, will not work w/ Vista 64 &
they don't plan on rolling out a 64 bit compatible version. Ironically, all
other 32 bit (even non MS) programs run fine. I *have* to run 64 for memory
purposes (Adobe CS3) and my company is running the latest (7.0) version of
Solomon for accounting. Any suggestions? I'm not very excited about have to
use two separate PCs for obvious reasons. Any ideas would be deeply
appreciated.
Thanks!

 

Still not a great solution, but if you have enough memory in your computer
you could use Virtual PC with a Vista x32 guest. At least it's just one
computer.

Paul - I've never tried Virtual PC. Would it allow the installation of a
program directly into the 32 bit OS? I'm assuming this would prevent having
to re-boot like a dual boot system? Thanks for the tip.

Yes, the virtual machine acts like a completely separate computer, except
that it's using all the resources of the real computer. No rebooting
required. Virtual PC is free and can be downloaded on MS's website. You
would want to install the x64 version. Once it's installed, you create a new
virtual machine, and install the x32 OS into that virtual machine. Make sure
you allocate enough disk space and ram for the virtual machine. If you're
not using the VM most of the time, you can leave it turned off and only turn
it on when you want to use it. You need an additional OS license for the
virtual machine, and additional licenses for any software you install there
if the same software is already installed on the real computer.
