Hi all. As Rita is trying to run Etoys on Windows7 (discussed in squeak-dev), I also tried it :-)
I had to make small twaek on installer script; It checkes windows version and change file layout and replace some file (browser plugin). The trick was Win7 has its own version number "6.1" that the script was't aware of, (Vista is 6.0). Win7 is very similar to vista, so I made the script do same stuff for win7.
With modified installer, Etoys is installed successfully, run without gotchas during making security key, run in IE8 (without protection mode though). This is just result quick testing.,, I will test it extensively.
How can I contribute the modified scripts?

Thank you for trying this!

is the repository, which I think I still have the commit right. But making an issue at http://tracker.squeakland.org/ and attach file would be appreciated!

Sorry for slooow response... please review attached files in http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-235
And I could reproduce vm crash that might be same one that Rita reported in squeak-dev. The crash dump is attached. I observed the crash several times just after rebooting, but after that vm starts successfully.

The stack dump from the crash is pretty clear in such that it dies in OggDriver class>>isAvailable. So it seems that somehow the Ogg plugin is causing the crash. You could try to remove the Ogg plugin entirely; I'm pretty sure that would avoid those problems
