I don't know the answer to your question, but have a solution if the answer is no.
Install a virtual computer and use Windows XP as its operating system. Not all Windows 7 versions allow this, You might also have to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. When this is all done, with the computer running, open the virtual computer in XP mode. Then install the organ software there. This virtual computer acts like a second computer inside. You can run both at the same time, switch back and forth between them, and access and send files between them.
A lot of software will not run on Windows 7 64 bit. That is why they created this option. Its complicated, but works well.
