If blackra1n fails, try these steps

Windows 7 here. Tried everything for hours. Just Registered to say thank you, and this worked perfectly for me.
One happy dude right here!
Thanks!

Also need to make sure that you right click blackra1n.exe and hit the "unblock" button on the bottom right in the General tab, then in the compatibility tab, I selected the "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and selected Windows XP Service Pack 2 in the drop box. However, the selections will vary from person to person, Windows XP is the base that should be selected whether it be service pack 2, 3 or just Windows XP.

Hope this helps.
