Experience/Education pack, Powertoys run on Vista?

Can anyone tell me if the Experience/Education pack and the Tablet XP Powertoys all run on Vista?

Oh the sweet power of google...

Well I don't have a tablet or vista so I'm not totally sure if these will work but I found this: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

I couldn't find the education pack. Powertoys also pop up randomly after the OS is released so eventually there will be more. The best place to look for extra downloads is simply the Windows Vista Downloads Center found here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/b...F-E7C0750ED02E

I hope this helped you out...

I haven't tried all of the powertoys for tablet pc, but the font tool from the set, installed without a hitch in vista
also the experience pack that ahamilton linked to in the above post, actually contains most of the tools that were originally found in the education pack, even though its called Experience pack for Vista.
There is also an ink desktop for vista

Great -- thanks for the help --- now I just have to see if inkball and hexic run on Vista, and I will be all set (my son LOVED those games when he played it on his cousins tablet).

Well, looks like Vista COMES with InkBall on the versions that have the Tablet PC stuff, and hexic looks like it should run on vista. Thanks for the help!

Anybody tried the music composition tool on Vista?

Hey all, I recently switched to Vista Business on my tablet using the express upgrade method. I'm rather confused at this point. Not all the XP tablet PC edition software seem to have equivalents under Vista.

I downloaded the experience pack for Vista, but there is no replacement in there for Ink Art. So is there no free download available to fill that need? I remember when my girlfriend bought the same computer (Fujitsu T4215), she went with the Vista OS directly installed on the computer and didn't take the upgrade path. She had an Ink Art like program included in her OS. Can someone help me out here?

Or you could use the more powerful ArtRage 2.

I'm looking into Art Rage and it appears to be quite the tool. I will download the free edition for sure, and if I like it, I may even spring for the full version.
Thanks.
