    Have you tried installing the current one in Vista Compatibility mode?
    You can't expect them to have a Windows 7 version yet, since Win7 is still in beta.

    Hi everyone !

    I got an Acer 9300, running with Windows Seven and Launch Manager is not working here too. Is there any news about a launch manager compatible width Seven ?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi all,
    you can try this way. It worked with my acer aspire 5315:
    - Download the lastest version of lauch manager for vista con acer website.
    - Extract zip file to a folder.
    - Find the setup.exe file.
    - Right click on setup.exe -> properties -> compatibility -> run this program in compatibility mode for Windows Vitsa.
    - Click on security tab -> Edit -> set full control for all groups and users.
    - Run setup.exe again and it will allow you to install the lauch manager.

    Hope this useful.

    Hi people,

    There is no problems with this. That's how I made it.

    Download Launch Manager for Vista, open Setup.inf in Notepad and add the line
    WinNT 6 1 Setup-File = Setup.lh
    in the end of [Info] section. Then just launch the setup. No problems any more.

    Now I am migrating to Debian Linux, maybe someone know how to set those keys work in it, or if the launch manager works in Wine?

    I have 6935G and i didnt have any problems installing launch manager. Just download Vista version from acer site.
    i'm using 64bit win7 but i doubt theres difference.
    try checking "Run as administrator" and put Vista compatibility.
