Can EG 4.2 be installed on 64-bit Windows 7?

I've just had to replace my Vista laptop with 64-bit Windows 7. I've re-installed SAS 9.2 and that works fine, but EG 4.2 gives the following error message when started:

"SAS Enterprise Guide has encountered a problem. We recommend that you save your work and restart SAS Enterprise Guide."

"System.IO.FileNotFoundExceptionCould not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.web.Services3, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system file could not be found."

Can EG 4.2 be installed on 64-bit Windows 7?........Phil

I'm running EG 4.2 right now on Win 7 64bit. I bet you have a different problem.

Phil, check out the pre-emptive install steps at:

You are missing wse30.msi, at least. But I'd run them all to be sure.
