 +==== Problems with Windows 7 64-bit ====
 +<note important>Try the program before runnung this fix!!!</note>
 +[[http://www.roboteq.com/tech-support/windows-7-roborun-install-fix]]
 +
 +The Strip.ocx file may fail to properly register when installing Roborun on a Windows 7 PC, typically on 64-bit versions of the OS.
 +
 +To correct the problem follow these steps:
 +
 +  - Retrieve the Strip.ocx file from (this link) FIXME . Unzip and save it in the install directory of Robotec - C:\Program Files (x86)\Roboteq\Roborun\strip.ocx
 +  - Right click on the command prompt icon in the start menu and select "Run as Administrator". The command prompt is normally located in All Programs > Accessories. You will be prompted to approve the elevation.
 +  - Once the command prompt open, type the following: %systemroot%\System32\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Roboteq\Roborun\strip.ocx"
 +  - Launch Roborun normally.
