Hi wspencer,

Photoshop Elements 7 is a very old software and has not been tested on Windows 7. Even if you manage to install it, you might face compatibility issues with it.

The current version of Photoshop Elements is 11. Please consider buying the latest version.

Thank you. It didn't seem to be called "Elements" back then. Only "Photoshop 7". Also you don't seem to be sure that it wouldn't work so I can't tell if you are  just trying to sell me the newer version (when I don't really need it). Can you give me more information please?
