Does anyone know how to get "DDS Converter 2" to work with vista? I can get it to start, but it can't select any files and doesn't load a display preview for them, any help?

Going on a long shot here but the file you've selected is a Bitmap and you're trying to convert to a bitmap? If thats not the case then i'll shut up.

Are you running it in Admin mode? ( Just a guess, but if you have been using Vista for more than a week you probably run everything in Admin mode Razz )

Try converting the files to a JPG or TGA before converting them to DDS, or if you are trying to convert from DDS, try using a DDS. Tell Me

Actually, its a glitch in the program. You have to select the file from the Image File List Dropdown list instead of clicking on the icon. You have to paste the path to where the image is and then the program will detect and the dropdown list will be populated with all the .dds files. Then, you have to click on the ".\" button beside the Output Folder line if the convert button is still greyed.
The preview does not work for me either and I don't think it has to do with Vista (I'm running Vista as well).

Odd, I had been using dds converter on xp for quit a while and all I ever had to do was click on the icon and it would display the image. Also you can usually convert .bmp to .bmp and it works it just disables a setting that says delete source. I have also tried it in Admin mod but that did not help anything.

Well nopol10 your suggestion did work, but it is incredibly annoying not to have a preview, but oh well.
