Instructions:

1. Please print out this page then read all of the steps slowly and carefully before beginning the installation process. DO NOT start until you have read all of the instruction. Windows 7 requires several added steps that need to be completed in a precise order and correctly.
2. With Windows 7, you must first download and install the required WinHlp32.exe file from the Microsoft Web site.  You can download either of two files, Windows6.1-KB917607-x64.msu or Windows6.1-KB917607-x86.msu. Choose the download based on your operating system.  To find out which operating system your computer is running
   1. Click Start, type system in the Start Search box, and then click system in the Programs list.
   2. The operating system appears as follows:

      • For a 64-bit version operating system: 64-bit Operating System appears for the System type under System.
      • For a 32-bit version operating system: 32-bit Operating System appears for the System type under System.

   Note If you just purchased a new Windows 7 computer, it will probably be a 64 bit operating system. If you upgraded from Vista, you might have a 32 bit operating system.  Downloading the file will install WinHelp for Windows 7.
   
   Note: This download is available to customers running genuine Microsoft Windows. You will be required to run Windows validation. Windows Windows 7 users must pass Microsoft Genuine validation requirements before you can download the file. Please read all the information and follow their instruction slowly and carefully.
