    Hey there

    I have a paid for subscription for KIS 7.0.125 that I took out at the end of last July so it's got some time to run and I'd like to use it in Windows 7 RC.

    But Windows 7 won't let me install it because the driver isn't compatible, apparently.

    Is there a way to install it or have I got to use the Windows 7 Beta version of KIS Kaspersky are pushing?

    Thanks in advance for any advice on this. :)

    BTW I wasn't sure if I should post here or in the Windows 7 sub-forum so apologies if I've put this in the wrong place.

    Have you tried installing it in compatability mode yet? Though if they have a Window's 7 beta out already, they must know the older version won't work. So it look's like you'll have to install the beta.

    If you took your subscription at the end it will still alow you to upgrade the product - you could try version 2009 - I think 8.0.506 is the newest - it will accept your key.
    Only once your key expires will you not be allowed to continue upgrading your product.
    May be worth a try.
