I can assure you finale notepad 2010 does work as I set a friend up with it some months ago. How ever I didn't have the issue you talk of so I cant help you further. Sorry! Good luck.

I downloaded and installed Finale 2010. WHen I try to open the program, however, it tries to run (I see the outlines of windows for a second) but then doesn't open.
