Thank you guys,
yesterday I installed both
- an Ableton Live demo (I think version something 7.x.x), and
- VSTHost software
on my Vista PC and played arround (but only 1 hour).
VSTHost is not normally not supported for Vista, but I tried.
Additionally I have to say that I have not installed the new 3.x virus software, but the known as stable 2.7.5 version. I have not got any information if the virus software is Vista compatible at all (using it with a plain midi sequencer at least works well). But using a the vst plugin I don't know.
It is interresting that I have the same problem with both Ableton and VSThost.
I can load the virus snow plugin by telling them the vst search directory or directly the virus vst windows .dll file.
I can drag&drop the plugin into a (sequencer track). But when I try to open the details/setttings (or what ever it is called) of the virus snow plugin I got a big window with empty contents (contents is the background of abelton or vsthost that was behind that window).
Because I have spent only one hour I will try to test that more further. But maybe the virus vst plugin is really not support for Vista, or I have to use version 3.x which may (because developed later) also support Vista.
Thanks
