I received the following from Keith Packard; and it fixed my Win 7 Pro
problem with Altus Metrum:

 

I've stuck a preliminary 1.4.2 version up on my site if you want to try
that; it has some hacks to try and work around Windows Java install issues,
and lets you skip that if we can't figure out what's going on.

Try installing Java 6, first.

Small suggestion;

 

You might consider dual-booting the machine with linux as a second operating
system. The altus products are written on linux machines.

 

Then again.....

I'm sorry to say that we have a new PC that I'm hoping to use to do some
work on related to altusui.   I've read the pointers about driver signing
and have disabled that then I tried 1.4.1.  The problem I'm having is
shortly telling me about needing to install Java I get an error saying it
can't load NSISdl.dll, pointing to a temp directory.   Any ideas?
