Confused on DD 10 & Windows 7 64 bit.

Thread needs solution

I am sorry, but I am confused about this question:

Does Disk Director Suite 10 work in (support) Windows 7 Pr0/Ult 64 bit OS?

I did read the offered grid and an 'X' on ALL flaver of Windows 7 (see near the bottom) indicating that Acronis's Major software does NOT work with this OS.

On the other hand I see people installing on Windows 7. Most are on the forums have issues, if course.

I have TI 2009 latest build and DDS 10 latest build. I need something to work on this OS when I get it and just need to know what to do when I install this OS. Anyone can clear this up. Maybe give a definitive link to a topic here.

Thank you for reading and helping me.

Do not install DD 10 on Windows 7. Just run it from the boot CD and you'll be fine, with the following two precautions:

1. If you create any new partitions with DD, use Windows to format them after creation. If you're installing from scratch then have the Win 7 installer format the partition(s).

2. Once your Win 7 system is up and running then if you use DD to do any repartitioning, remember that any operation that moves the starting sector of the Windows 7 partition will require a boot repair with the Win 7 DVD afterward.
