I bought an ASVAB study guide today and it came with a CD to help prepare for the test. Unfortunately, the CD won't install on Vista, only XP.

Is there any way to work around this?

Tried that, making it run in XP Compat. mode still gives me the same response.

I'd recommend a VM.

VirtualPC is very straight forward, not sure if it works in Vista though. I've never set up VMWare. You'll need to wait for J.
