I downloaded a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 from the following site:

Burned it and updated Windows 7. The computer works perfectly now, except that the update changed Windows key and now claims that the Windows is not genuine.
I followed the instructions from the following site, giving me enough time to correct the Windows licensing problem.

Any good advice?
P.S. Both versions of Tweaking now work without a problem.

I ran under admin account.
After several reboots, now Windows 7 key is recognized as Genuine, albeit different from what it was before the process stated above.
Shane:
Interesting that my program couldnt run on it before, would have liked to have found out why, but good to hear you got it working :-)

Glary software found over 400 register errors and unwisely, I let it "fix" its findings without reviewing them. I think it corrupted the register, which eventually prevented execution of some of the programs. When I installed Bitdefender, it uninstalled Malwarebyte. When I tried to re-install it, I received error messages that the installation didn't complete and couldn't write (forgot the rest of the message)--I did not pay much attention at the time and did not save the complete message, a BIG mistake. Always must save the screen shot of the errors or take a picture--after that Malwarebyte would not run. Updating Windows 7--as stated previously--apparently fixed the register corruption and all the programs run as expected.
Thank you for your excellent program and all your help.
