Solved

Bonjour, je comprends votre situation. Voici quelques étapes que vous pouvez essayer pour installer Print Artist 3.0 sur votre ordinateur sous Windows XP :

1. **Vérifiez le CD** : Assurez-vous que le CD n'est pas endommagé et propre.

2. **Accéder au CD manuellement** :
- Ouvrez "Poste de travail" (ou "Mon ordinateur").
- Double-cliquez sur l'icône de votre lecteur CD/DVD pour voir le contenu du CD.
- Recherchez un fichier nommé `setup.exe` ou `install.exe`, puis double-cliquez sur ce fichier pour lancer l'installation.

3. **Exécutez en tant qu’administrateur** : Si vous avez un compte administrateur, faites un clic droit sur le fichier `setup.exe` et choisissez « Exécuter en tant qu'administrateur » pour voir si cela change quelque chose.

4. **Désactivez temporairement l'antivirus** : Parfois, les logiciels de sécurité peuvent bloquer l'installation. Désactivez temporairement votre antivirus et essayez à nouveau.

5. **Compatibilité** : Si vous rencontrez encore des problèmes, essayez d'exécuter le programme en mode de compatibilité :
- Faites un clic droit sur `setup.exe`, sélectionnez "Propriétés".
- Cliquez sur l'onglet "Compatibilité", cochez "Exécuter ce programme en mode de compatibilité pour :", puis sélectionnez "Windows 98" ou "Windows Me" dans la liste.

6. **Vérifiez les mises à jour de Windows** : Assurez-vous que votre système d'exploitation est à jour avec tous les correctifs disponibles.

Si ces étapes ne fonctionnent pas, il se peut qu'il y ait un problème avec le CD ou avec la configuration de votre ordinateur. Vous pourriez envisager de rechercher des versions numériques du logiciel ou des alternatives en ligne. Bonne chance !

    In principle, Print Artist 3.0 no longer works on XP; you need to upgrade to version 6 or 8.

      Hello, thank you for your response, but actually, I just want to see the images on this CD. It's for my work, because I already have Print Artist 6.0, but they are not the same images; I need the ones from Print Artist 3.0.
      Thank you again and sorry for the inconvenience.

        Hi, I've had the same problem several times, but here's the solution:
        Try copying the contents of your CD to the "program files" folder. Then open the "PA" folder, look for the "PWIN" icon of the program, right-click on it and select "send to desktop" (create a shortcut), and there you go, it's done.

    Hello,

    PrintArtist 3 works perfectly on Windows XP, but it shouldn't be installed; just copy and paste from the CD-ROM in the PA folder to your computer's hard drive, then launch the application by double-clicking on the PAWIN.EXE file.

    Thank you for the installation solution for printartist3 on XP. Additionally, if you have a backup of the PA folder like I do, you can easily recover all your previous creations, which are just fantastic. In this case, you don't even need the CD to retrieve your favorite program.

    Hello,

    I installed Print Artist 3 on my daughter's PC running XP and it works without any issues.

    1. To install it: click on "My Computer" then on the icon of the drive where the Print Artist CD is located.
    2. Make sure not to run the tests it offers during the installation. Just click on continue. If you run the tests, the installation will crash.

    There you go, I hope I haven't forgotten anything, good luck.

    For me, I lost my Print Artist 3 due to a computer failure, but now I can't reinstall it; I miss it a lot. I have quite a few CD-ROMs: PrintMaster, Web Artist, Print Artist Classic, Print Artist 6, and many others, but I only like version 3.
    I do a lot of things for my club, and the other CDs are not the same. Who can give me advice or tell me where I could find another Print Artist 3 CD? I can't find it in stores anymore. Thank you in advance, mimimaud
