Hi Alvaro,
In the meantime good news - here's the text of my reply to Allan:
Hi Allan,
Thanks for the quick response.
I downloaded kmymoney-x86-setup-4.6.4.exe from sourceforge.net.
However, pleased to report that I have cracked the problem in the last couple of \
minutes - the AHA! moment was when I found that the program only starts if you "Run \
as an administrator". Simple when you know how.
I checked it on my "other" laptop - also running Windows7 64 bit - and the same \
applies.
On either machine, if run in "user" mode nothing noticeable happens, other than maybe \
a bit of a tick from an HDD.
Although I've been using Windows 7 for around 5 years, I still keep the admin / user \
demarcation from XP days. I find that having to type in a password rather than just \
(unthinkingly) clicking on what could be a major system change gives an extra bit of \
security.
I didn't see anything about using admin mode in the installation guide - could I \
suggest mentioning this somewhere?
Thanks again - I've been looking for something to replace MS Money for a good few \
years so I'm really pleased to have found this program.
Alec

Hello Alec,
What's the output if you try to run it from a terminal?
Regards,
Alvaro
