Hi ,
According to CyberLink Power Director 7 is compatible with Windows 7. You can check if any firewall or Anti virus is blocking the install. Try disabling it. Make sure you remove any Quick Time alternative like K-lite codec etc before installing. You can install Quick time player from Apple website then try to install it. Then when you install it make sure you right click and Run as administrator on the setup. If your planing to upgrade maybe you can go for Power Director 8

Hope that helps

thanks i did what you said and it worked its still a little laggy at times do you know why it would be laggy? could it be due to my graphics card?

Glad it worked.
I guess reason might be with the Graphics memory. What card do you use ??
Start > dxdiag you could find there

Unfortunately you cannot do much, first thing to do, perhaps, is to ensure that all unnecessary software is disabled when you work with PD. . Disconnect from the Internet, disable Firewalls and Anti Virus software. Unload any other programs you have loaded into memory and running in the background. Also make sure its using latest display driver. You could try Shawn's tutorial http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11728-speed-up-performance-windows-7-a.html

Hope that helps
