Has anyone done this?

My old machine has finally become to unreliable, and I've 
bit the bullet and bought a new laptop with Win7 64 bit.

First attempt to install failed.
Tried it with an XP instance in Virtual Box, but that 
failed because it would not resume setup after restart!

Finally got it to install on the main volume after checking 
everything as run in XP SP2 compatibility as Admin, and 
turning off screen effects.

It now *appears* to run fine - early days, but the stuff I 
develop is mainly client front-ends to 
Access/MySQL/SqlServer databases.

Anyone else developing with VB6 on Win7x64?
