It runs perfectly on Windows 7 x64 with two exceptions:

1) Some versions of the 1946 DVD with the DRM technology (as mentioned) don't install properly because the DRM only assumes that Windows XP is going to be the OS it's played on (IMHO rather stupid). Just copy your directory over now... burn it to a DVD or something like that and you'll save yourself some trouble.

2) Don't install it to C:\Program Files. Vista and Win7 have protections in place on these directories and IL-2 being so old doesn't recognize the changes. I have mine in C:\Games.

Aside from that there are no Win7 specific problems. Anything else that anyone pops up with is a specific problem. It really does run great!
