Hi
I found a lazy way of finding Progs/drivers that are not compatable with win7 (one of my older games stuck the first version of Visual C++ 1.1 which I hadn't noticed)
Just run the Windows 7 'Upgrade' Advisor program - works with WIN 7 installed too and lists progs/drivers that should be wiped off your PC.
Syntax for taking control of files in Win 7 (must be administrator!)
CMD Line
Files:
takeown /f file_name /d y
icacls file_name /grant administrators:F
Directories:
takeown /f directory_name /r /d y
icacls directory_name /grant administrators:F /t
Also dodgy processes and the like >
Search for 'EMSI Software a-squared Hijackfree'
Highly advanced prog (hope you really know what to wipe off) and should wipe any process/drivers off your PC.

Here's anther bit, might be important
Hi, I tried this on Win7 and it didn't work. I then retried it but using Vista (Service Pack 2) compatibility instead of XP and now its working fine.
So basically... do exactly as above but instead of setting it to compatibility mode XP (Service Pack 2) use Vista (Service Pack 2).
