There are two courses of action to take. First, make sure you downloaded the software from the Sony eBook site:

http://ebookstore.sony.com/downloadclient.html

I am using version 2.0.00.07200.

Second, see if Vista enables Legacy XP software to run. Right click on your desktop icon and click on the Compatability Pane. This version of Sony eLibrary may require Windows XP or Compatablity Mode in Vista.

This version is supposed to run in Vista but there are many versions of Vista. You may need compatablity mode.
