Did you run the modder.vbs file?

When you type hostname from a CMD prompt what do you get?

When I run the command line modder.vbs, does this message appear?

Using Regedit go to this key and what is the value in the Data column for CurrentVersion

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ 

[hpayaresbecerra 0]

This is the version of the Data column for CurrentVersion

I just tried on a new install of Windows 7 and there is no problem. I'm not sure what your problem could be, but make sure you are running the modder.vbs from a command window with administrator privileges. You might be able to right click the modder.vbs and Run as Administrator.

You might mod the modder.vbs file to bypass the check.
