Encarta Compatability

[mjf]

I own Encarta 2007 Standard and wanted to install it on Win 7 64 bit for my son.
A check with MS Win 7 compatability center makes no mention of Encarta 2007 standard but says 2008 standard is (X) not compatible and 2007 Premium (whatever that is) needs a paid upgrade.
Before doing a clean reinstall I had Encarta 2007 standard running.
Any comments? Is it safer not trying to install it?

I have Encarta 2007 Installed and all is working well. The one minor issue is that the Encarta Search Feature under Windows 7 x64 can make the taskbar look a little wonky, but nothing major. You get this warning when you enable it, but I enable it any way as it does work.



Bottom line, no real show stoppers to keep from installing Encarta

Incidentally I think 2008 was the last Encarta update, so no more Encarta
