title: Installing Gemalto Developer Suite on Windows 7
body: <p>How can I install Gemalto Developer Suite on Windows 7?</p>
  
  <p>I've tried all the compability options, and even extracting the setup files and running those with Windows XP compability turned on, but I always get "The operating system is not adequate for running Developer Suite".</p>
  
  <p>I'm using Developer Suite 3.4.2 on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.</p>

  <p>There is an option for "Show the Windows Installer log" when the the install has failed, but this just shows a dialog box with the message "Error 2732.Directory Manager not initialized".</p>
  
  <p>I'm also running the installer as Administrator</p>
  
  <p>The developer suite installs fine in Windows XP Mode, but it's really slow to use this way unfortunately (even with 4G ram and SSD), and tends to crash a lot.</p>

  <p>If you try and install it without the updater, it does semi-work - you get what appears to be a functional eclipse install, but without any of the Gemalto tools or the Java Card SDK.</p>
