Dan, Ian, thanks for the feedback. We'll need to stress test the Windows 7 build for the next release. Probably a different build would do. For the time being, I'm afraid Ian's solution is the best way to go, unless you can run on some other Windows version - it looks like several users use vmtk on Windows, so it may be a 7 or 64bit issue. Thanks for your patience.
