Hi,

I got vista 64bit and I can get the application to start to convert DVR-MS to WMV..

It keep telling me that the program is not responding.

someone can help with the manual installation maybe?

I'm having the same problem (albiet on Vista x32), so I'll provide the information the OP neglected to mention:

 After installing the application and rebooting, the following errors appear in the windows event log:

 ehmsas is broken (or the mcestate.dll sink isn't installed properly).  there are several solutions for this issue in the forum.
