No, you don't need 4.7, but you installed it outside of your CoH new steam version, you have to install it into CoH folder.

If you have CoH (new steam version) installed, point installer into that folder.

You have older CoH version, you need to install steam if you don't have it, then put your CD-Key in Games/Activate a product on steam and then install Company of Heroes (New steam version).

I guess you did.

This is my path to the game in my laptop (with the current version of BK working):

That's how it should look for you too.

Note that there is a "CoH" folder, but nothing from the BK mod goes in it!

I am using Windows 7 and I don't have any actual anti-virus other than the basic Microsoft Security Essentials. When I try to install the mod it asks me if I want to let the thing make changes to my computer (In this case install) and I say "Yes" and nothing happens. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Nevermind, everything seems to work except that the Historical Add-on doesn't want to work. Also, on my first game it crashed just as I was about to push into the opposing team's base. So far the mod looks glorious though despite some of these hiccups
