Hi. Well, I guess you probably did alot of unnecessary work down grading to 7.1. You probably only needed a library which was easy enough to install, and then you could have installed that application under 7.2 which is much better than 7.1. Often times when something says system requirements 7.1 it will work fine on later versions assuming you have the dependancies or newer versions of them. That's my two cents. Hope this helps. You might want to upgrade to 8 when it comes out.
