Don't know if it's relevant to what's going on in your situation (as we don't have our Win7 agents running as services, but do you have your Win7 service for Jenkins set to be able to interact with the desktop? (I don't remember specifically where that's set or what it's called, but I know we had to do something similar with some Win7 situations)
Can you do a copy into that directory via your Jenkins job to verify that Jenkins has permissions to write to that location? I'd assume so since it seems that the out.txt gets created. What about trying to see if myProg is the issue on Win7 rather than Jenkins? Can you echo something (like ENV >>out.txt) to see if that can write out to your output file? If that succeeds, then I'd look at what myProg is doing.
