mastercook cookbook

by confusedmunga Feb 18, 2011 9:28AM PST

Since changing to windows 7 I cannot get my computer to install a cookbook that I have been working on for 10 years, It keeps giving me a DLL message, can anyone tell me how to get around this and get the program installed? I believe the message was incompattable, Is there anyway to get around this?

Mastercook Installation

The best way to try installations of older programs:

Right click on the installation program, select Properties and click on the Compatibility tab. Select the OS that you used before (probably XP) and also set the box for "Run this Program as Administrator". Then run the installation program. After installation, make the same selections in the Compatibility tab for the program icon.

I have been able to install many older programs this way.
