When I first tried to install this, on my Windows 7 PC, I got into all sorts of problems - the installation didn't complete, the software wouldn't run, and the un-install wouldn't work. This turned out to be in part because a "click to acknowledge the installation has completed" box wasn't compatible with Windows 7, and in part because the viewer software uses a now-retired bit of Windows. I had to use System Restore in Safe Mode to un-install it, and then installed it in a Windows XP Mode virtual machine, where it does work. The user interface is a bit dated, and so far I've not figured out how to make all the data CDs available on my PC instead of having to have the physical disks there, but it does work.
