When you purchase a template, you should purchase it for your version of oscommerce. It sounds like you purchased an html template instead. If this is a new shop, I suggest purchasing the template again for your version. The cost of the template will be much less than the time you spend trying to convert what you have since it will have all of the changes in it.
