Due to the way Windows 7 has been developed, protection driver updates will not be available for Windows 7. Here is what Star-Force has to say:

Protection versions below 5.5 do not support Windows 7.
Users of products that protected with 3.x/4.x/5.0 versions should contact the protected program developers or publishers to obtain Windows 7 patches, or use previous Windows version to run the products.
StarForce offers FREE re-protection for all the developers and publishers of the programs that utilize version below 5.50 to release the appropriate patches. Please contact us at sales@star-force.com for re-protection and further details.*

Protection versions 5.5/5.6 partially support Windows 7.
Due to constant changes within Windows 7 during its development process some 5.5/5.6 builds may not fully support this OS. In case of failure please update the protection driver through the protect.exe utility or use a protected program developer’s patch to be able to run the protected programs in Windows 7.
StarForce offers FREE re-protection for all the developers and publishers of the programs that utilize version below 5.50 to release the appropriate patches. Please contact us at sales@star-force.com for re-protection and further details.*

Protection versions 5.7 and above are fully support Windows 7.
There is no need for any additional actions.
Windows 7 support is implemented for both 32 and 64-bit versions.

NOTEl Downloaded products may work since they require online SecurRom Activation

Do PCs even support Midway games? Almost every week there is some guy that can't figure out how to get one of the games to work.
