> I have the same problem with CVFortran 6.6 in windows 7. I am using premium edition of windows 7, but the problem exists again. I need help because my all projects are in CVF and with Array Visualizer.

I’m a bit confused here as to what you meant by “again”. Did you take all of the steps I did and then find that your copy of CVF wouldn’t install inside a virtual PC using XP mode? Or did it install but Array Visualizer doesn’t work? (I’ll confess right away that I have never used their Array Visualizer features).

Some of my confusion is caused by your comment that you’re running “premium edition”. Note that if you’re currently running under Windows 7 Home Premium you’ll have to upgrade it to Windows 7 Professional before you can even install Microsoft’s Virtual PC feature.
