The software runs in the Windows 7 64-bit versions called "Professional", "Ultimate", or "Enterprise", if you install two free Microsoft downloads: "Virtual PC" and "Virtual XP".
They are free downloads from Microsoft. They work with Windows 7 "Professional", "Ultimate", or "Enterprise".
They do not work with Windows 7 "Home".

Re: Help
Thanks for the reply, I was wondering is there any way around this. I am using home premium and I don't really want to splash out £120 to upgrade just for this to work.
Thanks again

It won't go with Windows 7 "Home", sorry to say.
Microsoft made it available for Windows 7 "Professional", "Ultimate", and "Enterprise", but not for "Home". They might have been able to do it, but apparently chose not to do so.
Some players have a second PC, such as a laptop, for running applications that they like, and which won't run in the "latest" Windows. For example, many legacy applications will run easily in XP.
You can find some laptops reasonably priced on sites like eBay and others. Their cost can be less than a full Windows upgrade, and they give you some flexibility in choosing the software you like to run.
