STM32F4 pack gives errors

Error: Device Support not found:
Device: STM32F407VGTx
Vendor: STMicroelectronics
The device support might be part of a Software Pack.
Please visit http://www.keil.com/dd2 to identify and download the missing Software Pack.

... and so I did. It installed the software pack, but it does not seem to work with the version of uVision that we are using. Moreover, when I try to open a project for an STM32F407, it will tell me there are errors loading the software packs:

The version of Keil uVision may be older, but we are reluctant to upgrade because older projects will have to undergo a new round of system testing so we are sure the upgrade doesn't break existing code. That would be a considerable amount of work.

Is there a way to get the STM32F4 support working under this version of uVision?
