    I've tried installing all of my MS apps (Office/2003, Visio Pro/2003, Map Point 2006)...

    So far, the MapPoint/2006 does not work in Win7/RC-64.bit.  It comes up with an error message that says "Registry entries are incorrect.  Please re-install the software."   I just re-installed it again, and I get the same result. 

    Then I tried installing it in the Virtual-XP window and it works fine.  So, there must be some incompatibility in Win7 about how it sets up the registry settings.

    Hi Bherber,


    It seems that Mappoint 2006 is compatible with windows 7, as they claim at their website:-

    http://www.mapforums.com/mappoint-2006-control-website-asp-net-5887.html

    By the way which version of Mappoint 2006 you are taking about. So it is also reflected at Microsoft’s compatibility list for Windows 7 at:- http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=mappoint%202006 

    I hope above information helps.

    Thanks,
    Abhay

    Thanks, but I am still unable to get Mappoint-2006 (Version 13) to install and run under Win7/64-bit.  It works okay in the Virtual-XP mode, but still gives "registry" errors in native W7/64-bit.
