I used DarkBasic a few years ago on a windows XP computer. I just purchased a new XPS with windows 7. When I try to run the "Hello World" exe the computer prompt reads as follows:

Could not create C:\Program Files(x86)\The Game Creators\DarkBasic Professional Online\Temp\dbp_program.exe

If you know how to get the program to run on a windows 7 OS please help! The computer is very capable of handling the program.

Thank You!
