Anybody above ground knows that Windows 7 is out now. "SpiritualMadMan" sent in this report in the field and I thought I'd share it ...

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 on an HP DV6609wm and I installed Visual Studio 6 and initially had problems.

However, ignoring Microsoft's dire warnings of incompatibilities I plunged ahead.

Yes,Office 2007 Professional Key, I had problems...

But,Office 2010 Key Sale, the fix was extremely easy.

Navigate through the Folders and Right-Click on the VB6 executable. Under Properties - Compatibility set options for all Users (Checkbox at Bottom) to WindowsXP SP3 Mode and Run as Administrator.

Also,Buy Windows 7, a Note about unsigned drivers... I had been Using FreeOTFE (On The Fly Encryption). However the Installation broke because the Encryption Drivers are all "unsigned".

However, installing VirtualPC allowed me to install FreeOTFE there and recover my Encrypted data. The ease with which I could transfer files between the Virtual Machine and the Win7 was also way much better than VirtualPC 2004.
