dekscapes won't install

Not sure where else to post this

When I try to install stardockdeskscapes.exe, I get a message saying it's not a valid win32 application. I'm running Vista x86. Is this for x64 only? It doesn't say that. Anyone?

It sounds like your installer is corrupt.  I would download it again.

I've downloaded it about 10 times. Some from wincustomize & some from stardock, although I'm sure it's from the same place. Same result. I rebooted. I tried compatibility mode for xpsp2. I'm running as administrator. I can't think of anything else.

Is anyone who is successfully using this running x86 or is everyone running x64??

Same here,

I downloaded stardockdeskscapes several times and got the same error message.

I am running Vista Ultimate x64 and it raises the folowing Event ID

I am running Vista Ultimate x64 

That's your answer

Fuzzy Logic: Deskscapes should work fine on 64 bit Vista.
