OK, now I have tried to embed a manifest and it seems to work on both Windows XP x32 and Windows 7 x64:

Here's how: First I created a file in the main package directory called manifest.xml:

<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0" xmlns:asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3" >
	<asmv3:application>
		<asmv3:windowsSettings xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings">
			<dpiAware>true</dpiAware>
		</asmv3:windowsSettings>
	</asmv3:application>
</assembly>

Then added a Custom build steps :: Commands:

mt.exe -manifest manifest.xml -outputresource:$(OUTPATH);1

// Tom

[EDIT]

Testing this solution was successful on Windows 2000 Professional, Windows XP Professional x32, Windows Vista Business x64 and Windows 7 Professional x64.
