Crystal XI on Windows Server 2008

[childofthe1980s]

Hello:

I installed Crystal XI on a Windows Server 2008 machine. When I try to
launch it, I get the message saying "Crystal Reports has stopped working".

Any ideas on how to fix?

I tried repairing, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling.

Nevermind....I figured this out, too. You have to go to the System
properties applet in Control Panel, click on the Data Execution Prevention
tab, and turn off Data Execution Prevention for Crystal Reports.
