No. It works as intended on my Windows 7 Profesional.

"And when it does run it has the most god awful interface I've seen in a long time."

Absolutely true.

As mentioned before - IF you have Windows 7 Pro AND IF your cpu is capable of virtualization THEN you can download Windows XP from MS. It is even easier than installing Windows XP on a "new" computer.

I just installed the Sony #%&#@$ on the virtual XP computer, connected to the Sony reader and it worked.

So the real question is WHY would you want to use it? There is a very good alternative - Calibre.
