Tim,
Thank you for clearing up the information on finding the legacy driver. I
have now installed the legacy driver; however, that still did not solve the
fatal erro message.
I have also signed up for the FlexEdge reflector. I was under the
understanding that the FlexEdge reflector was for new Flex development
issues and not the existing Flex configuration.
Now for the current issue:I am using PowerSDR v1.18.3, driver version
v.3.4.5254, PAL v.3.4.5234
I have installed .NET 1.1 + the SP1 update.
I am not getting the error message now that was included. The message that
was in the attachment was as follows:

parity, Int32 dataBits, int32 readimeout, Int32

Subject: Re: [Flexradio] FLEX5000A PowerSDR not working after Upgrade from
VISTA 64 to WINDOWS 7 64
First off, Win7 is not a fully supported operating system for running
PowerSDR. See the OS compatibility statement.
http://www.flex-radio.com/Support.aspx?topic=PowerSDR_Compatibility
This reflector is designated for released software using supported operating
environments.
As such, all discussions about Win7 should be directed to the FlexEdge
reflector, but for this case, we can continue this topic on this reflector
because it might be beneficial for those wanting to upgrade to Win7, which I
do not recommend until PowerSDR is fully supported on it.
For more information about the FlexEdge Reflector, please see the following
web page:
http://www.flex-radio.com/Support.aspx?topic=Reflector_Description
To sign up for the FlexEdge Reflector, use the FlexEdge Reflector User
Management web page
(http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz)
and go to the Subscribing to FlexEdge section.
We need lots more detailed information
What version of PowerSDR are you using?
If it is 1.18.x, did you install .NET 1.1 + the SP1 update?
Here are the instructions for changing to the legacy.
http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50433.aspx
Your Firewire host controller my have a chipset that has a Win7 driver that
is specific for it and my not have the legacy version of the driver.
Also, attachments are not allowed on the reflector, so the one with the
second error message did not make it through.
