Default Micrografx Designer 3.1 in XP

Micrografx Designer 3.1 was one of the all ‘round best graphic systems I have used. While it lacks many of today’s advanced features, it’s still an easy and powerful program, even if it is 17 years old!

I have all versions of Designer up to ver. 10, but for simplicity, I love my ver. 3.1

Over the years, I have successfully migrated this program into successive versions of Windows, most recently being Windows 98/2. However I am stymied with a very simple task in installing it to XP (Media Ver.).

I get the message File Error - “Cannot find MGXVBM.DLL”. I have the file and have installed it to every conceivable directory, but am still unable to start Designer 3.1.

I would install from the diskettes, but a virus got into one many years ago, so I have no choice but to migrate from HD to HD.

Any suggestions?
