Windows 7

Has anyone else tried running WoW or Minion on Windows 7?
I'm currently installing WoW (MS decided not to make 7 upgradable from XP so you have to do a clean install) and will be installing Minion as soon as WoW is up and running.
Looking to see if anyone else has done this and if they have encountered any trouble.

Work without any trouble. Just make sure you ahve the correct JSE installed (32 vs. 64 bit)

I had some errors cannot delete file..or something.
I moved WoW from C:/program files to C/games/World of Warcraft and it worked without any errors

Umm, would that have been the "Game Install" or the addons, that you moved?

The game install

Did you redirect your Install location?

If not do this:

Click on Tools
Click on Options
Click on MMOUI - WOW tab
Check your directory and make sure its pointing at the current install location.
If not change it.

Well, I had WoW installed and it ran fine, copied my addons over and everything was ok.
But due to a problem with how 7 is installed dual booting with XP, I am reformating the drive 7 was on and trying it again.
When installing WoW, it recommended to install it <drive>:\users\public\games. I think that is the same for Vista? As I'm going along with 7, it appears that most of it is based off of Vista, so it appears that Minion will be able to transition to 7 with little trouble.
Though 7 is still in RC, if anything is nedded for testing Minion on it, please let me know.
I will post once I have 7 working again. Note: I am running 7 in 64bit.
