Wink MCSE Readiness Review - Doesnt seem to like Vista/IE7!

I've got the MS Readiness Review software for the 70-270 but I get the following error when I try and open it.



Anyone else come across this?

I've found the suggestd solution from MS however the link to the patch is annoyingly broken.

Patches Fine but no display

Ran the patch with Vista, no more error message, but the questions still do not come up!!! Just a blank screen!

Any help would be appreciated.

Do I need to install new Java or Flash?

Thanks

The exam sims are working then, its just simulating the worryingly long pause between questions that you get in the real exam!

I set compatibility mode to XP SP2 on the installer .exe and then on the program .exe with 'Run as Administrator' on my Vista machine, all works fine now. (I was getting the blank screen originally).
