You need IOS-XE

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps4324/data_sheet_c78-686325.html

Software Requirements

The  Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series Supervisor Engine 7L-E is supported only in  Cisco IOS Software and is not supported in the Cisco Catalyst Operating  System Software. The minimum software version is Cisco IOS XE Software  Release 3.2.0XO.

That's correct.  This IOS is not for the Sup7E.

Download the IOS for Sup7E from here:  http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=283289791&flowid=19255&softwareid=282046477&release=3.4.0SG&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=ED&reltype=latest
