Tom Ham Posts: 19 Rating: (2)	I have been running Step 7 in a virtual XP machine running on Windows 7 64 bit platform for a few weeks now. Step 7 will not load on Windows 7 so for now it seems you must use the vitual machine. Windows makes this available for free for Windows 7 Pro users at: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx You also have to turn on "virtualization" in your BIOS settings first. This was difficult to find - it was actually in my securities tab in the BIOS. The virtual machine is stable and the application runs well but a little slow. I found the virtual machine from Sun to be less stable. The Windows VM installation was very simple. Tom
