I reported an issue with mouse drag speed when running OPW in a Windows 7

I've just installed the Windows 32-bit version of Acrobat 9 Pro on the Windows 
7 VM. When I print to AdobePDF from OPW, the document appears in the print 
queue (briefly) but no save box opens.
As a check, I installed OPW and Acrobat 9 on my WinXP netbook ... and printing to AdobePDF works just fine. 
Could this be a Windows 7 / OPW compatibility issue?

You have now verified that OPW works with XP on native hardware. Now try installing Windows 7 on the native hardware. Only if OPW fails to work correctly on this setup can you say that the fault lies with OPW and Windows 7.
By introducing a VM without the above check, you cannot be certain that the interaction between the VM and Windows 7 is not the cause of your problems.
