ETO on win7 in compatability mode?

SOH-CM-2025
This question is for win7 64 bit.
I installed cfs3 per the instructions found here which said to run in xp compatibility mode and as administer. I did, and all works fine.
Now I've installed ETO 1.0 per the video. It does not say anything about changing to compatibility mode. It appears to run fine in all eras. It did have a screen at the end of the install that said it might not have loaded correctly, and gave me the option to reinstall, I did not.
Do I need to change to xp compatibility mode? Will I have some problems that I don't see now? I don't want to add the other ETO updates yet if I'm going to have a problem.
 
windows xp mode makes me lose fps on my win 7 so I leave it off. Yes everything off except run as admin. They are probably old instructions written for vista users..
