Use XP-Mode. The runtime does not work on Win7.
This gives you an XP Virtual MAchine pretty well integrated with the Win7 system.
I've instaled the V6.1 toolkit on Win 7/64bit without issue.
It seems that your kit might be missing a few files.
I'd also install the Installation Manager (latest version) first. Then add the .id file ind \disk1\ as a local repository.
I'd also install 6.1 before V7.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

Be aware that, despite smdavies99's claims to have it working, 6.1 is completely unsupported on Windows 7.
So if you're doing anything other than building a developer workstation, STOP NOW. |

Be aware that anything you do to run broker 6.1 on Win 7 is beating a square peg into a round hole. So it's going to be slow, you're going to have to use workarounds and accept that it's all a bit cumbersome.
And not supported.
If it works at all, be happy and move on.
