Windows Vista Compatibility

If your disc has 'Vista Compatible' printed on the label under the version number you do not have to download or install HLV Compatibility software.  This download is for older discs printed before Windows Vista was released.

To run our older training CD's on the Windows Vista operating system you will need to install 'HLV COMPATIBILITY'.
