I have a few programs that dont want to work on Vista Premium, such as
Dreamweaver 8, Flash 8, Silk Road Online, MatLab 7, and a few others. Does
anyone have suggestions for fixes, or a list of programs that Vista can run?

Are those Vista compatible programs or are they XP solutions? Have you tried
the Vista Compatibility mode settings that allow a program to run under
various platform settings, like XP, Win2k or Win 98?

You may find a later list, use Google.

I hear people have gotten PC2007 to work on Premium.
