Version 8.0.4 will run on Vista and probably on Windows 7 but with the following additional issues:
- The installer cannot download SellerDeck Link from the Internet.
- If User Account Control of Vista is on, then each time SellerDeck (Actinic) ecommerce software is started, Vista warns that the application is not signed (authenticated). The user can confirm that they want to proceed and SellerDeck (Actinic) will run normally. SellerDeck Link, if used, generates the same warning.

To fix this issue, first backup your current Catalog.exe file, which is usually in 'C:\Program Files\Actinic v7. Then download the Out of memory patch zip file and extract the new Catalog.exe into the same folder.
