I know this post is 2 months old, but i just wanted people to know that you
can in fact run MapGuide Studio 2009 on a Vista x64 machine.  You need to
use the corflags tool provided with VS2005 to force the studio.exe file to
operate in the WOW64 environment.
The process is detailed here:

As mentioned, this fix requires Visual Studio 2005, i have 2008 installed on
my new machine and wasn't able to apply it with this.  I had to do it on my
old machine, and copy the file over.
