I have installed it in the Windows 7. VM for Java too installed without an error. I then tried to compile and run a couple of sample projects of MFC appwiz, VB and Win32 App and it worked good.
But then i had this problem. When i try to create a function using the class wizard the IDE freezes with cpu shooting to 50% in a dual core and stay @ the same usage.
Visual studio6 however is supported on Windows 7.

okay.. now i sorted out the freezing problem. Updated the Visual STudio 6 with service pack 6. But now when i try to use the MFC ClassWizard dialog box's Edit code I get the following error
"ClassWizard cannot rename the file c:\\users\<name>\AppData\Local\Tmp\mfcxxxx.tmp to d:\<project folder>\file.h"
i tried to disable the UAC settings of Windows 7 but in vain.

like i guessed Windows 7 imposes some restrictions on the folders which reside in the os partition. so to fix this i changed the path variable from c:\user\appdata\loal\tmp to d:\tmp
now everything works just fine..
to change the path variable
Control Panel->All Control Panel items->System Properties->Advanced tab->Environment Variables button->Edit PATH var in the variables for username section.

its odd that occurs. With UAC enabled there should be a thing called File, Folder and Registry Path Redirection enabled (the handy little thing which when a program asks for documents and settings, redirects them to /users etc....)
But im glad you got it sorted though.
