I am trying to install a program onto a laptop but I keep getting a message saying "cant on current operating system" even though I have already installed the same program on my desk top which is running windows 7 as well could anyone please help.

Thanks
 

Solution
My first thought would be that, since the message suggest that the problem is somehow related to the "current operating system", you might be trying to install a 64 bit application onto a 32 bit version of Windows 7.
If this is not the case, then perhaps some specifics regarding your laptop, as well as the program you are trying to install on it, might help us further assist you.

Thanks for your prompt reply I will have a look into what you suggested
 

Also, could check Firewall Exceptions, that it is listed, check-marked & being passed/allowed.
