    You might need to be a little more specific.

    Otherwise did W7 prompt you to install using Compatibility mode, maybe that could help.

    Perhaps are you using some 16 bit programs on Seven 64?

    What program are you trying to use? 16 bit is rare to see these days.

    can you post a screen or tell what program causes this error?
