I was never able to find a solution to 7.5's Notes problem--black type
on black background for any view that had a Notes field. Something to do with
my Nvidia graphics adapter. Tried everything with Tech Support but couldn't
change it.
Is anyone having this trouble on L8?
Answer is no. In L8 Standard, using the sample database, when I go to
open the notes for an individual, I now get the message: Richtx.Invalid
Property Value. I have to click OK twice to open the Notes database. This
step didn't happen in 7.5, but the result is the same. The
of Windows do you have?

Not sure this will apply to your situation, but I had similar trouble

Look in the program files for Install.log. If it's not there, try
re-installing 7.5 once more. Check again to see if install.log is among the

The sub-directory Data under Legacy Family Tree, wherever you keep
it, gets pretty messy with multiple trees. Anyone have a good way to keep down
the confusion?
I'd like to put all the files for each tree in a Data sub-folder, but
the location option has to be set to just
them.
Remember also to set option 1.2 to define which file you want to open on

You have to have an install.log to get it uninstalled. The only way I
know to get it is to re-install 7.5, then go to the program folder, check to
see that is there and click unwise.exe. If you are given options to
uninstall--auto or custom, choose custom and ok each further
manually delete the Legacy registry files.
I don't want to mess up legacy 8, but I can reinstall that if needed.
