BackupExec 10d is from Circa 2005.  Windows 7 MUCH MUCH later in 2009.  They are not going to work at all.

After that there was BackupExec 11d, 12.0, 12.5, 2010, and now 2012.  Windows 7 came out after 12.5 was released.

Just to provide more information.... We can not install any version of Backup Exec on any client OS released after Win XP.... that is we can not install BE on Win Vista or Win 7.

Only installation of Remote Agent is supported.

 

Thanks,
