    LOL, it's your illegitimate copy of Vista 64 that caused your headache: the Paradox release uses a Linux bootloader which was not uninstalled by your early efforts. Nothing to do with Windows 7... You would have had no trouble with the store-bought version. Bad boy!!!

    There is good reason that I recognize the cause of your boot problem: you and I are equally legitimate
