DirectX 7 will work on windows 7 as long as you register it. I'm running 64-bit windows 7 myself without any DX7 problems. I'll look into using directx8 instead. I wasn't aware that simply jumping up to DX8 would eliminate people's need to register the driver on windows 7. A while back someone had told me anything under DX9 still required the registering step so I didn't bother moving away from 7.
