FS-Repaint 2 works beautifully in Win-7. So if you are used to it, and need it for repainting as well, consider to update.

I don't know if version 1 works. One thing to be aware of is that neither your Flightsim installation nor your FS Tools should be installed below "C:\Program Files" in any Windows version greater XP. The OS security mechanism assumes that everything below that folder is system related. Therefore it protects the files from being "messed up" by another program.
Cheers,
Martin

D3DRM.DLL is a DirectX file. This would mean that either your DirectX version does not include this or somehow the file has become corrupt. i would start by checking your DirectX is ok and up to date.
I have now idea if that particular module is DirectX9 only or whether it is included in each version.

Is there anybody out there with Win7 that can check to see if D3DRM.DLL is on their PC for Miljan?

Steve,

I don't think D3DRM.DLL is in Win7 and I couldn't find it on my new laptop with Win7 64 bit. Here is a link that might help in resolving this problem:

http://www.d3drmdll.com/

    Nice, Mike. Useful post and that page seems to indicate that its not in Win7 either. Hopefully that will help out other Vista uses that get this issue.

    Here is a direct download for the dll in case you feel uncomfortable to let an unknown FileCure program loose on your computer (I would...)
