AIM Pro with Windows Vista x64

Post by DrXThirst »

Well, I got my new computer today and I found out that when you try to use AIM Pro with it, then it just gives a blank IM window and it doesn't show what you send or what the other person sends.

Do you guys know what I'm talking about, and if so, how to fix it?

I don't know. I guess not. I know that AIM 6.0 works...

AFAIK, the 32-bit version of Pidgin works under 64-bit, so you could try that, maybe. :?:

Well, now I'm using "Digsby" or something like that. It's just like Pidgin.

If it worked on 32bit, I would recommend setting up a dual boot. Some programs don't work on 64bit Vista and having a 32bit Vista on the same PC would be handy.

AIM Pro gives alot of x64 users this, I would reccomend Pidgin along with everyone else.
