Tip & How-To about Computers & Internet

Windows Vista & 7 64 Bit Drivers installing.

It may or may not work, but try installing as Administrator and setting the program's EXE into "Compatability Mode for XP SP2",and also, running as Administrator. Windows 7 just doesn't want to support any hardware over like a year old... Drivers are a HUGE issue. Especially for older stuff. Compatability Mode is one way round it but not always. Also you will have to set to OFF Digital Driver Signing. At bootup, press F8, and at the bottom of the selections offered, you will see Digital Driver Signing.... EVERY TIME you boot you MUST set this OFF, or it will simply not work, thats if it does install anyway. You MUST have it OFF to install as well.

need driver compatable with windows 7

Hi, well I am sorry to tell you but there are NO Win 7 Drivers as such. However you may be able to still use it with Compatibility Mode. Now, It may or may not work, but try installing as Administrator and setting the program's EXE into "Compatability Mode for XP SP2",and also, running as Administrator.

4. choose between windows xp sp2 or 3 (sp3 usually works fine.), or windows vista sp1 or 2 then click apply.
5. run the driver installer, and see if it solves the problem.
