Hello.

Give this a try...

Right click on the programs shortcut, either in your Start Menu or on your
Desktop where ever it is.
-> Click Properties
--> Click the compatibility tab in the new window that pops up
---> Check Run this program in compatibility mode for and choose Windows 98.
----> Check Disable visual themes.
-----> Hit OK and give it a try.

Let us know if it works.
