If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate you could simply download an install Windows XP Mode from Microsoft. It's a free download and would allow you to then run PPENG within a virtual Windows XP environment on your Windows 7 machine. This would provide true Windows XP driver support allowing you to download to the remote as well. Guess I should state that I haven't attempted to do so myself, but can't imagine it wouldn't work. Now if you have Windows 7 Home Premium there is an alternative to upgrading to Pro or Ultimate and running Windows XP Mode. If you have a legal copy of Windows XP you could create your own XP Mode under Windows 7 using the free VMware Player. A tuturial for how to create XP Mode for Windows 7 using VMware player can be found here.
