Hi all
Thanks for your help and suggestions. I uninstalled D7 and reinstalled again. Now it runs fine. I must have done something wrong somewhere along the line I suppose. Thanks again folks:) John From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Jason Coley Sent: Wednesday, 11 November 2009 4:29 p.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] HELP! : Windows7 64 bits - Delphi install issues Have you tried running in Admin mode? Right Click, Run as Administrator mode? Also, what happens if you disable the User Account Control? Does the install fail or just say it isn't compatible, can you just install anyway?

Windows 7 doesn't seem to find a compatible OS to run the SETUP.EXE from the Delphi CD. I assumed that the whole idea of this GREAT feature of Windows 7 Professional is to allow running "old" software in e.g. XP mode. The funny thing is that it let me install D4 without any problems at all as a XP-SP2 application. So why doesn't it take D7, or is it just me? Jason suggested to install virtual PC and XP mode, this might work but defeats the whole purpose of Windows7 compatibility feature, doesn't it? Any help, comment and suggestions are very welcome:) John
