Session Drummer 3 With Producer 7

For years now, I've owned BFD 1.5 and still haven't figured out how to use ity properly. Grant it, spending 10 minutes 5 times a year won't do much ... anyways, before I get too old and croak, I'd like to figure out one of these drum software doohickies so now I'm curiou about Session Drummer.  I have SD2 on my Producer 7.
OK, I can listen to the included drum clips but, that's about as far as I can go.  I really like the visual of SD3 and would like to learn how to string drum loops into songs with it.  I've got a good selection of loops from SmartLoops and Groove Monkee.
I'm disabled & disgruntled now, so I figure I'll fill my time with learning this stuff properly because time is all I got ... no money, just time ...
 
 
First ... can I upgrade to SD3 to begin my new adventure OR does that force me to upgrade to a newer version of Sonar?  I'm really happy with P7 as it gives me all the necessary functions I need.
Second ... I bought the BBE disk from Cakewalk years ago and it worked fine up until Windows 7.  I have it on my XP Pro laptop and it works great.  Won't even load on my Windows 7 system (32bit).
 
Thanks

    watch my video, session drummer 2 isn't so different from session drummer 3
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjZS61Wg-XY
    even though the above video says drum triggering, it shows you how to set up session drummer

    here is how to edit notes in the piano roll in sonar x2,again, piano roll isn't to different from sonar 7
    it is but the concepts are the same
