You have Windows 7 64 bit right? I think that's the problem, because GP2edit is a 32 Bit Program.... Virtual PC should fix that problem I think.

Virtual PC emulates older Windows System, while you're running your main one. On that way I often did some changes in GP2 etc.

This is a FREE Microsoft product, so you can suppose from where. :wink:

After that get one virtual HDD file (for example for Win XP) and run VPC. Thats all. :)

It's free, simply type in Google "Virtual PC Download". Just like VirtualBox.
All you need is a Windows CD to install it, cause download VHD Files with already installed systems is illegal and I don't want to post links to those warez sites here ;)

When you have Win7 Professional or higher you can activate the XP Mode with the Virtual PC as described above. Else you need an installable Version of Win XP

Best of luck!
