[DUG] HELP! : Windows7 64 bits - Delphi install issues

Hi all

 

I have this new pc (remember:) and try to install D7. 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
