There are two things you need to do to make it run on Windows 7:

1. Start a command prompt with admin privileges, navigate to the folder in which you've installed BD, and enter the command:

regsvr32 gflax.dll

2. When you first run it, you'll find that it won't work properly. Exit the program, and Windows will tell you that it needs the dynamic HTML editing control installing. Accept Windows' offer to download and install this control.

Everything should now be fine.
Is it necessary for 32 and 64 bit, or 64 bit only?
For some reason, I thought BD would not work in W7, so I installed it in Windows XP Mode.
Today, after I read your post, I have followed your instruction and it worked Although, when I ran regsvr32 gflax.dll, it said the installation was successful or something like that and when I started BD it worked. No error messages or invitations for installing dynamic HTML editing control.
I wonder why.

32 bit doesn't need it?

My version of W7 (Professional 32 bit) has it preloaded?

Some of the s/w I installed brought the dynamic HTML editing control into the system?

Thanks!
