GE Executables won't run in Windows 7

I got Windows 7 and GE 1.4.0, but the exported file won't run. I don't want to downgrade Windows or GE because when I had XP with version 1.4.0, everything worked fine and I have already gotten far on a project when I had XP. Any games saved and exported before I got windows 7 still works. Why is this, and how can I get GE to work?

A small black window pops up, like at 640, 480 and just sits there not responding. I've tried version 1.3.9 and it works perfectly still. I have however made a small game where the packman follows the mouse around and that works, but that's basically it. I am unable to reexport my main game. Instead this time, GE crashes.

You suggestion worked when I had the same problem. Thank you!
