I ignored the errors I was getting and it seems to be working somewhat. Some things don't work because they error out. For example, I create a new server. I right click and choose properties. I get an error and it doesn't do anything. But I can select it and choose properties on the top menu and get there fine.

I had a couple of access violations for BNR3 itself but it seems to work just not without errors on occassion.
