So far Vista has been stable and is compatible with all my other software (using the latest updates of course) and all my hardware. Typically, I expect problems with new software such as Bookdesigner; I understand the difficulties faced by the developers; and I am very grateful for their unpaid efforts. I really like BookDesigner. Thanks guys!
That being said, does anyone have a fix for Vista? Does BD use VB6, Python, or other similar applications or libraries? I suspect that a key component is either missing in the Vista install for the Sony Reader or is not updated to the latest version. Since all the other conversions work, there must a problem in the file/dll calling sequence (please translate from hand waving to accurate tech speak). Are there any logging capabilities in BD?
Also, look at this URL:
